Daveed Gartenstein-Ross Releases Important New Book (updated video link)
By Andrew Cochran
The newest book by one of our Contributing Experts, Daveed Gartenstein-Ross' "My Year Inside Radical Islam: A Memoir," officially launches tomorrow, and I predict it will attract a broad readership. Daveed tells the story of his work for the U.S. branch of the al-Haramain Islamic Foundation, one of the many charities found to be a financing funnel to Islamic terrorists, and his eventual cooperation with the FBI's investigation. But he also recounts his personal journey of faith into and then out of radical Islam before, during, and after the period of work with al-Haramain. I read a late draft, and I found his insider's account of that terrorist financing vehicle fascinating, while his personal journey was moving; this book is unique in the genre for that reason. Daveed wrote this article for Reader's Digest and was interviewed by FrontPageMagazine.com. You can see his interview on the Fox News Channel's "Hannity & Colmes" program.
