[The Great Satan]

Unsuspecting civilians are doused with radiation and germ weapons. Intelligence agents recruit psychic spies. Generals plan an attack on a Chinese nuclear weapons plant. A phantom army triggers the largest arms buildup in history. Politicians secretly construct an underground city to escape fallout. The United States comes within 7 minutes of launching its ICBMs.

A government scientist takes the heat for an anthrax threat from a foreign power. The President hides his knowledge of the real authorship of the most daring attack on the US ever perpetrated. A bogus "assassination attempt" is concocted to cover a backdoor deal with a murderous blackmailer.

It's not just fiction. It really happened.
