In The Threat on the Horizon, eminent national security scholar Loch K. Johnson, who served as US Defense Secretary Lee Aspin's assistant, offers a comprehensive insider's account of the Aspin-Brown Commission of 1995-1996. Based on a close sifting of government documents and media reports, interviews with participants, and, above all, his own eyewitness impressions, Johnson's thorough history offers a unique window onto why the terrorist attacks of 2001 caught the United States by surprise and why the intelligence community failed again in 2002 when it predicted that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction.
