If someone knew when and where the next major terrorist attack was to be to take place against America, wouldn't the US intelligence community want to know about it? In Countdown to Terror, US Congressman Curt Weldon, proves that Ali, an informant with access to the minutes of the most secret Iranian councils does have details about many plots against the US. In fact, he has outright predicted - days, weeks, or months in advance - numerous terrorist plots that were actually carried out our thwarted at the last minute. Still, the CIA, the DIA, the NSA, and the FBI in the US have all repeatedly refused to listen to him, even going as far as to threaten him for his communications with Congressman Weldon. Ali now warns of an even greater threat than the 11th of September 2001 - a plot called The 12th Imam - which the US intelligence community must act upon, or face catastrophic consequences. Congressman Weldon exposes a deeply dysfunctional culture and perverse political agendas in American intelligence that are endangering American security. will do nothing to fix the country's broken and failing intelligence services.
