9/11 almost instantaneously remade American politics and foreign policy. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Patriot Act, water boarding and Guantanamo are examples of its profound and far-reaching effects. But despite its monumental impact--and a deluge of books about al-Qaeda and Islamist terrorism--no one has written a serious assessment of the man who planned it, Osama bin Laden. Available biographies depict bin Laden as an historical figure, the mastermind behind 9/11, but no longer relevant to the world it created. These accounts, Michael Scheuer strongly believes, have contributed to a widespread and dangerous denial of his continuing significance and power. In this book, Scheuer provides a much-needed corrective--a hard-headed, closely reasoned portrait of bin Laden, showing him to be a figure of remarkable leadership skills, strategic genius, and considerable rhetorical abilities. The first head of the CIA's bin Laden Unit, where he led the effort to track down bin Laden, Scheuer draws from a wealth of information about bin Laden and his evolution from peaceful Saudi dissident to America's Most Wanted. Shedding light on his development as a theologian, media manipulator, and paramilitary commander, Scheuer makes use of all the speeches and interviews bin Laden has given as well as lengthy interviews, testimony, and previously untranslated documents written by those who grew up with bin Laden in Saudi Arabia, served as his bodyguards and drivers, and fought alongside him against the Soviets. The bin Laden who emerges from these accounts is devout, talented, patient, and ruthless; in other words, a truly formidable and implacable enemy of the West.Binding Type: Hardcover

Tesla 😋😉 jeep phone mount.
Bought this to go in my jeep, perfectly attached to the corner of the screen of the screen, the only down side is since my screen raises and lowers over time with the vibration of the jeep it does make the screen slide down. But the magnet holds the phone very well as long as it is aligned properly to the back of the phone. I know it say tesla mount but my choice of smart stereo for my jeep is not a flush mount, it sticks out and has a cd player in the deck. As well the screen raises and lowers for access to to the cd player. So perfect for my jeep.

Amazing MagSafe phone stand
I recently purchased this MagSafe car phone mount, and it has been a game-changer for my daily commutes. The installation was effortless—just snap it onto the air vent, and you’re good to go.
What stands out the most is the strong MagSafe connection. My phone stays securely in place even on bumpy roads, and removing it is just as seamless. The minimalist design fits perfectly with my car’s interior, and it doesn’t block my view like other bulkier mounts.
Another highlight is the 360-degree rotation feature, which makes adjusting the angle for navigation or hands-free calls incredibly easy. It’s sturdy, reliable, and eliminates the need for clamps or adhesives.
Overall, this is a must-have for anyone who uses their phone for GPS or music while driving. Highly recommended for MagSafe-compatible phones!

Great Phone Mount
This is a great little phone mount! Simple and effective. I’ve been wanting something for when I am pulled over at a super charger to be on a call or watching something on my phone without holding it or putting it in the cup holder. Works super well with my MagSafe case although it does come with extra magnets as well in case you don’t have a MagSafe case. Highly recommend! Easily attaches to the screen, no sticky residue or risk of sun staining on the dash like other mounts.

Best one so far!
This is a great device! Not my first one but definitely better than I had before! It mounts on the side of the screen, which is very convenient as my other one was sticky, so I had to leave it with my other car. The handles rotate well to give you any position that suits you. There is some good suction, so it sticks well and doesn’t fall. It’s good quality and sturdy. The phone magnets very well to it and also doesn’t fall. I rotate it any way I want but mostly vertically and diagonally. I had it for a while now so can give you my honest opinion. Highly recommend!

Works great. Perfect position
Grip and charging are great. I like the position because it doesn't block my view or the vents
