On 15 December 1975, A. Q. Khan - a young Pakistani nuclear scientist working in Holland - stole top secretblueprints for a revolutionary new process to arm a nuclear bomb. His original intention was to provide for Pakistan a counter to India's ongoing pursuit of an atomic bomb. But over time that ambition mushroomed into a vast nuclear black market sanctioned by Pakistan's military elite - financed by aid money from the United States, Saudi Arabia and Libya, as well as boundless assistance from China. They secretly sold weapons to Iran, North Korea, and many others - with the clear knowledge of the American government, for whom Pakistan was a crucial buffer against the Soviets and now an ally in the 'war on terror'.Successive US Administrations conducted a deliberate cover-up: destroying intelligence, lying to Congress and the West about Pakistan's capability, and facilitating the spread of the very weapons we vilify the 'axis of evil' powers for coveting and dread Islamic terrorists obtaining.

Fantastic book. A must read for anyone interested in Pakistan

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 16. Mai 2011

While this book in general seems to have covered the Pakistani nuclear programme in detail, the inferences about India are all horribly wrong.
For example, the Prithvi missile is not named after the king Prithviraj Chauhan. The author seems to have been misled on this and has failed to do this research.
The author has very little understanding of the Indian nuclear programme and also of Indian politics.

How can this be?

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 27. Mai 2011

Deception: Pakistan, the United States and the Global Nuclear Weapons Consipracy I was aghast with reading what's in here. That from Jimmy Carter all the way through George W. Bush funded the Pakistani Atom Bomb Program with US Taxpayer dollars, and did nothing to stop it. That President Regan lied to the US Congress (a Felony... as President Clinton found out regarding his Monica goings-on) each and every year from 1981 through 1986, certifying Pakistan was using US Foreign Aid money for it's people and not for Atom Bomb Development and Production, which is what they were really doing with the money. I counted 103 major players just on the Pakistan Side of their Atom Bomb Program, so it's very hard to keep everyone straight the first time you read this. It would help to have a Chart of all the Major Characters that a reader could refer to in the course of reading this amazing book. It needs yet another update, as even more goings-on have happened since even 2008. I could not put the book down once I started to read it. It's one of the very few "page turner's" I have run across in my life, and as I said in the beginning, I was aghast at what the US and Pakistan has done!

Revealing history!

A well written investigative report of the US - Arab world alliances and conflict. It may be disturbing to some readers, but is well worth the time. It is a drama-documentary of the political paths to todays crisises.

Deception: Pakistan, the United States and the Global Nuclear Weapons Conspiracy

Reads more like a thriller than a history book. So good I bought a second one for a friend who also thoroughly enjoyed it.
