I Was Kidnapped by the CIA

Quicklink Submitted By Gregg Gordon 2 comments

Gregg Gordon

Peter Bergen tells the story of Abu Omer, snatched off the streets of Milan in 2003 and flown to Egypt to be tortured, and the Italian prosecutor whose investigation has led to the indictment of 26 US officials. The ironies -- the now-wanted head of the CIA mission opposed the operation but succumbed to White House pressure, and the kidnapping dramatically delayed the prosecutor's investigation of Middle Eastern terrorists.

"The world is seemingly full of disconnected crises, but Rob Kall begs to differ. An exceptional pattern thinker, he connects a range of contemporary challenges through a framework of bottom-up solutions in a world dominated by top-down thinking. Mining extensive interviews with thought leaders and exploring an eclectic mix of leading-edge ideas, Bottom-Up describes a variety of latent and emergent characteristics of an evolutionary paradigm shift that's changing the world. Whether your focus is in business, leadership, activism, or organizations, Kall offers a practical conceptual map and toolset to engage the planetary evolution taking place all around us. If you want to make a difference and need inspiration for how to participate in this global transformation, there is plenty in this book to draw from."
