The Last Jihad - Joel C. Rosenberg

Jon Bennett is a senior White House advisor, but nothing has prepared him for the terror that he will face. Saddam Hussein dispatches his top hit men to assassinate the President of the United States. Iraqi terrorists spread carnage throughout London, Paris, and Riyadh . . . and the Butcher of Baghdad has a nuclear ace in his hand that he has not yet played. \nBook 1 in the bestselling 5-book thriller series that has sold over 1.2 million copies! \n \nReleased in the stunning days just after 9/11, this eerily prophetic novel predicted an attack on the U.S. and the war in Iraq . . . but was written before any of it happened. \n \nOne of the most entertaining and thought-provoking novelists of our day. Regardless of your political views, you've got to read his stuff. \n--Rush Limbaugh, radio host \n \nBuckle up! The Last Jihad is a high-speed, heart-pounding, edge-of-your-seat roller coaster ride into the heart of darkness. . . . Feels ripped from tomorrow's headlines . . . this stuff could really happen. \n--Sean Hannity, radio host and #1 New York Times bestselling author \n \nA wild rocketing read. The Last Jihad is Tom Clancy writ large. \n--Vince Flynn, New York Times bestselling author of Consent To Kill \n \nThe debut novel that became an explosive NYT bestseller! \n \nJon Bennett and Erin McCoy are two of the shrewdest strategists on Wall Street and close friends of the president of the United States. Their secret project: a billion-dollar oil deal off the coast of Tel Aviv and Gaza that could form the basis of a historic peace treaty and bring enormous wealth to every Israeli and Palestinian. But nothing has prepared Jon or Erin for the terror that lies ahead. \n- Terrorists hijack a jet plane and fly a kamikaze mission into an American city \n- Israeli commandos foil a nuclear attack but find evidence that the next targets could be Washington and New York \n- And suddenly the United States finds itself in a war in the Middle East over terrorism and weapons of mass destruction that forever changes the course of human history As the plot unfolds, White House advisors Jon Bennett and Erin McCoy are under attack in Jerusalem as the U.S. goes to war with Iraq over weapons of mass destruction―but The Last Jihad was published four months before the actual Iraq war began.
