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 Author of "I Was Saddam's Son" and "The Devil's Double" Which Have Sold Over One Million Copies Worldwide in Twenty Languages .

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 Until recently there was mass migration, no immigration at all, therefore the laws are out of date and irrelevant.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!

Hey freespeech I found some things that didn't pass my sniff test. Could it be... fishy???

If you can buy this book (and Yahia's others) on Amazon, it's not exactly banned. ;}

What evidence is there that this book is banned? Frankly, this sounds like an advertisement using a claim that it's been banned. Actually, you can buy all of Yahia's books via Amazon.com

Thanks for the reply. Basically, the book isn't banned. Not at all. As far as bookstores go: in the U.S. to get into bookstores you either have to come in via one of the 2 big book distributing companies or else sell your book independent store by independent store (yes, it can feel like being banned, but it isn't--it's just corporate publishing, alas).

If you remove the banned allegations, I'll remove the "fishy" flag. How about that? :)

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.

This is an important story. Take out the advertising and indicate that in your opinion there seems to be an effort to impede access to the book here in North America rather than unsubstantiated accusations of an outright ban.

The important link is the one to his site. People are smart enough to search the web for his book without the sales pitch and link.

You may not be doing this man much good by not making the changes requested, and I believe his story to be one of importance.
