Tonight we’ll have on author, columnist, scholar and all-around anti-terrorism expert Dr. Rachel Ehrenfeld on with us. Dr. Ehrenfeld has been in the headlines recently when a Saudi named Khalid bin Mahfouz, allegedly a support of Islamic jihad, sued her for libel based on the fact that 23 copies of her book Funding Evil; How Terrorism is Financed and How to Stop It were purchased over the internet by Britons
Mahfouz has actually been successful in getting several books about terrorist funding pulled from publication in the past, and Dr. Ehrenfeld is just one of his targets
