<\/a> Meet the Egyptian-American FBI agent who foiled an Al Qaeda plot:<\/strong> By dispatch time, some of us here will be on Amazon looking to snap up a copy of American Radical: Inside the World of an Undercover Muslim FBI Agent<\/a>. The book takes a look at a year-long FBI investigation that foiled a 2013 Al Qaeda plot to derail a Canadian passenger train. Its protagonist: an Egyptian American undercover agent who goes by the alias \u201cTamer Elnoury.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The book, which channels other tell-alls on Hollywood blockbuster-worthy operations that run the risk of unveiling classified information, also dives into Elnoury\u2019s transition from a New Jersey narcotics officer to his first sting operation with a member of the Al Qaeda cell. It apparently ends with a Le Carre-like scene in which Elnoury is almost caught. He has since retired from the FBI, but remains an active counter-terrorist operative for the bureau.<\/p>\n

Elnoury tells the Wall Street Journal<\/a> that publishing the book risks blowing his cover, but he wrote it to honor fellow FBI agents and, as a proud Muslim, to expose what he called the \u201csometimes vast and sometimes subtle\u201d divide between radical and mainstream Islam. You can also check out a clip from his interview with CBS News\u2019 60 Minutes, in which he wears facial prosthesis and alters his voice (watch, runtime: 1:34<\/a>).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
