The must-read piece on terrorism this week comes from Philip Shenon, writing at The Daily Beast. Shenon writes about a cache of intelligence documents stored at the National Security Agency (NSA) that received a cursory review by the 9/11 Commission because they were only discovered shortly before the Commission’s final report went to the presses. It is a story that Shenon tells in his 2008 book, The Commission: The Uncensored History of the 9/11 Investigation. It is a story that I tell in my 2007 monograph, Iran’s Proxy War Against America, and in a number of articles.

And it is a story that Ken Timmerman told before both of us in his 2005 book, Countdown to Crisis: The Coming Nuclear Showdown with Iran.
