Not exactly a book specifically related to hydrocarbon issues I suppose but then I guess that depends where you stand on the reasons for "The War on Terror".

This book is an examination of the attacks of 9/11 and is written in a coherent and non-sensationalist manner. Griffin sets out to examine the facts as we know them about 9/11 and uses many sources to paint a VERY different picture of what we know about 9/11.

He examines all the evidence and raises issues that he says need urgent clarification. Such as why did it take the jets so long to respond to the hijackings? How could the Twin Towers have collapsed when there is no record of any tall building being made out of steel collapsing due to fire? What happened to other footage of the Pentagon crash? Was it really a plane that crashed into the Pentagon?

Griffin offers alternative theories to the events based on evidence that has been reported both in the mainstream media and from investigative reporters. He also analyzes how far up the chain of command knowledge of the attacks went.

Personally this book has totally transformed the way that I look at 9/11. Whereas Crossing the Rubicon seemed to be a bit more extreme, Griffin writes in a manner that analyzes the facts thoughtfully and offers the reader to come to their own conclusion. Put this on your Amazon list now.

I still have Richard Heinberg's written recommendation to me to get this and read it.
... haven't gotten that far yet.

Have to post a link that criticizes Griffins book and Griffins subsequent response. Just to give neutrals a clearer picture.
