The Terror Factory: Inside the Fbi's Manufactured War on Terrorism: The Isis Edition

By Trevor Aaronson

Book Overview

A groundbreaking work of investigative journalism, The Terror Factory: Inside The FBI's Manufactured War on Terrorism exposes how the FBI has, under the guise of engaging in counterterrorism since 9/11, built a network of more than 15,000 informants whose primary purpose is to infiltrate Muslim communities to create and facilitate phony terrorist plots so that the Bureau can then claim it is winning the war on terror. The Terror Factory reveals shocking information about the criminals, con men, and liars the FBI uses as paid informants, as well as documenting the extreme methods the Bureau uses to ensnare Muslims in terrorist plots, which are in reality conceived and financed by the FBI. This new and updated edition describes how the FBI has applied its aggressive counterterrorism tactics against supposed ISIS members in the United States, as well as how the Trump administration has manipulated the Justice Department's record of terrorism prosecutions to justify hardline immigration policies.
