520    The United States government is actively monitoring 
       terrorist cells affiliated with Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda
       network in eleven cities, from Florida to Boston to Denver
       to Houston. But al Qaeda is hardly our only threat. Hamas,
       formed in 1987, was run by top Palestinian officials in 
       America from its earliest days, and has tentacles in Texas,
       California, New Jersey, Virginia, and Illinois. The 
       University of South Florida was infiltrated by the 
       infamous organization known as Palestinian Islamic Jihad -
       - one of its faculty members even left the country to take
       that group's top leadership role after his predecessor was
       assassinated. Hizballah has been tied to cells in North 
       Carolina and Michigan, from which it drew funds and 
       attempted to procure military equipment.  In short, 
       September 11, 2001, was hardly an isolated or 
       unpredictable event. The United States has become home to 
       hundreds and probably thousands of terrorists, and it has 
       become a central node in their international networks. The
       author has been working full-time since 1993 to track the 
       spread of terrorist networks to our shores. In 1995, not 
       long after the release of his PBS documentary "Jihad in 
       America," he was informed by federal officials that a 
       South African Islamist death squad had been dispatched 
       after him, and told that he should leave his home 
       immediately. Since then he has not maintained a home 
       address, though he has continued to write and testify 
       under his own name. With the help of a staff of 
       researchers he has followed the terrorists' monetary 
       sources, monitored their attacks and plans, exposed their 
       ties to charitable foundations, and assisted a variety of 
       government agencies in the battle against them. He has 
       obtained videotaped evidence of terrorist training camps 
       and conferences, and tracked the international connections
       of American operatives to over a dozen organizations. This
       book reveals the full story that only he knows.
