Australian Jihad: The Battle Against Terrorism from Within and Without (2006) By Martin Chulov
 
'Australian Jihad' reveals details of key plots against the nation and its people abroad; discloses a shocking, highly emotional sequel to the first Bali bombings; uncovers how the decade of developments shaped the very real threat from within; and outlines how Australia's spies are desperately trying to evolve from easybeats to contenders able to take on their new adversary. Detailing the trailblazing visits to Australia of the global jihad pioneers; the clandestine mission of Frenchman Willie Brigitte; the trials and tribulations of the troubled wayfarers David Hicks, Mamdouh Habib, Jack Thomas and Mathew Stewart; and the 2005 counter-terrorism arrests of 22 Australians accused of preparing a catastrophic strike against their countrymen, the book chronicles a gathering menace.With unparalleled access to security sources both here and overseas, Chulov gives us the real stories behind the headlines, and in doing so has proved that the truth is often scarier than even the most frenzied conjecture. As compellingly written as any thriller, Australian Jihad is a vital investigation into just how secure our national security really is.
