"Triple Cross: How bin Laden's Master Spy Penetrated the CIA, the Green Berets, and the FBI--and Why Patrick Fitzgerald Failed to Stop Him"
http://www.amazon.com/Triple-Cross-Penetrated-FBI-Fitzgerald/dp/0060886889/sr=8-1/qid=1163625162/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-7881285-6532849?ie=UTF8&s=books

Book description excerpt:
In the years leading to the 9/11 attacks, no single agent of al Qaeda was more successful in compromising the U.S. intelligence community than Ali Mohamed. A former Egyptian army captain, Mohamed succeeded in infiltrating the CIA in Europe, the Green Berets at Fort Bragg, and the FBI in California—even as he helped to orchestrate the al Qaeda campaign of terror that culminated in 9/11. As investigative reporter Peter Lance demonstrates in this gripping narrative, senior U.S. law enforcement officials—including the now-celebrated U.S. attorney Patrick Fitzgerald, who personally interviewed Mohamed long before he was brought to ground—were powerless to stop him.

Pretty funny, somewhat scary.

I can't remember if its ''Bin laden'' or one of his others, but Yosseff Bodanky dedicates almost a whole chapter to this guy.

Someone really dropped the ball in govt.
You don't let foreigners get close to classified stuff.
Well, you'd have to overlook the whole Clinton Administration.
