This book has been banned in the United States and Ireland, it is called "The Black Hole", if you live in either of these Democratic and Free countries you will not see it in your bookstores. Your governments forbid you to buy it!
Latif Yahia is an Iraqi native and author who has lived in Dublin, Ireland for over 10 years. He is married to an Irish born woman and they and their children are in danger of being forced apart or to leave Ireland together. In our long and ancient history it is only in the past decade that the Emerald Isle has had immigration issues. Until recently there was mass migration, no immigration at all, therefore the laws are out of date and irrelevant.
Caught in his own Black Hole, Latif is struggling to keep his family unit together. This is his third and current book, and may be behind the plot to deny him what thousands of others have received, an opportunity to call Ireland "home" for he and his family. The book is autobiographical and delves into his dealings with the CIA two years before the invasion of Iraq. Why are we not allowed to read it? Find out more here!

What if people buy the book online and have it shipped to them?

Great original content, thanks.

Thank you for the flags lads! As far as buying the book online, well I am not sure, you can inquire at his site I guess. Banned books cannot be sold in bookstores I know that much; but, what else does the ban mean? I didn't even know that they still banned books!

Banning books seems so... old-fashioned.

And counter-productive! All I want to do now is get my hands on one!

... and had it not been banned, we may never have heard of it. Now, though, at least [jordan checks the view counter] one hundred sixty people now want to learn more about this!

I followed the link and listened to a speech by Dr. Latif Yahia that he gave at the Trinity College in Dublin. Terrorism was the topic and he speaks "Who built and made the terrorists? and what means a terrorists war? Two things built terrorists. Politicians and the Media."
If you follow Caoimhin1's story to Yahia's page there's an audio and video version of the speech.

I gave 5 stars to The Black Hole by Latif
Yahia because it gives a rare glimpse into the world of oil, diamonds
and real estate and the manipulations of the ones making vast sums of
money in these places and to the extent they will go to maintain their
positions in the present setup. And this includes murder.
Latif Yahia saw early that the Bush-Cheney Gambit to make
themselves immensely rich by substituting CIA puppets for Saddam was
going to fail. Latif wanted none of it and got put into the black hole by the Bush Doctrine that maintained there was no neutral ground and you were either for us or against us.
Latif writes about MI5 and MI6 and I have also written about them
in my books as well. Most Americans remain ignorant about not only them
but world affairs in general. The problem is that this is a world
economy today. If you intend to make money today, as Latif illustrates
in his book, then you had better know what is going on in this world
right now.
Billions of dollars have recently been lost by numerous bankers who
remained ignorant of what really was going on in this world. Latif was not one of these and got out of the real estate bubble before it burst.
I've learned a lot from your book, Mr.Yahia. Thank you for writing it.
