The Big Wedding: 9/11, the Whistle Blowers, and the Cover-up (Paperback)
A New Book by Sander Hicks (Editor)
Big Wedding: 9/11 Author, Vox Pop Publisher Sander Hicks Calls for Homeland Security Head Michael Chertoff's
Resignation
Questionable Ties to September 11 Financier and Other Conflicts of Interest Cited in Explosive Tenth Chapter of New Book
Given as Evidence of Unsuitability for Leadership
New York, NY-Big Wedding: 9/11, the Whistle-Blowers and the Cover-Up author and Vox Pop publisher Sander Hicks today
issued a call for the resignation of Michael Chertoff, Head of the Office of Homeland Security.
Citing evidence uncovered by FBI whistle blower Randy Glass in the explosive tenth chapter of his new book, Hicks is one
of a growing movement of people who believe that, even four years later, Americans still haven't gotten the full story
about what happened on September 11, 2001, particularly with regard to the role played by Homeland Security chief
Michael Chertoff.
Among the Chapter's Revelations:
* During his 1994-2001 tenure as criminal defense attorney for the firm Latham & Watkins, Chertoff not only defended, but also was able to acquit 9/11 financier Dr. Magdy Elamir in a New Jersey HMO
scandal involving millions of dollars in unaccounted funds which, intelligence sources believe, ended up in the hands of
Osama bin Laden.
* Perhaps most damning in Big Wedding is Hicks' evidence of a cover-up during Chertoff's confirmation hearings for
Homeland Security head. Stories in the Washington Post and other major newspapers about the Elamir case were suddenly
killed, under highly suspicious circumstances, as if there were certain individuals who didn't want all the information
about Chertoff's past interfering with the appointment.
While he is loath to draw any grand conclusions from the evidence collected(including Chertoff's role in the Vince
Foster case) Hicks believes it is sufficient grounds for Chertoff's immediate dismissal.
"Chertoff's total mismanagement of FEMA during hurricane Katrina should be enough," said Hicks. "But with the startling
information uncovered by Randy, I think it's an imperative. You don't have to be a wild-eyed conspiracy theorist to find
something wrong with the fact that the head of Homeland Security once defended a major 9/11 financier."
Since publication of Big Wedding, new revelations have come to light:
* As is the case with former Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, Michael Chertoff holds dual US/Israeli
citizenship; a fact which, for Hicks and other 9/11 revisionists, casts a light on the questionable motives of Chertoff
and the neo-cons. As head of Operation Green Quest, the multi-agency initiative to target sources of funding for
terrorist organizations, Chertoff did little to stop terrorism. Chertoff was also one of the chief architects of Title
III of the USA PATRIOT Act, and advised the CIA regarding the legality of torture at Abu Ghraib.

ABOUT THE BOOK
9/11 ushered in an era of permanent war, rule-by-fear, illegal torture, and indefinite detentions-all justified by an
attack that the Bush Administration claimed was a complete surprise. But as publisher of the critical Bush biography
Fortunate Son, Sander Hicks had a unique position from which to cast a hard look at the official story around the
attacks. With original research and interviews, his new book, The Big Wedding: 9/11, the Whistle-Blowers and the
Cover-Up, provides a new level of proof that Bush's advisors had detailed foreknowledge of 9/11. The Big Wedding
examines the CIA's controlling, client relationship with Pakistani intelligence, who had close, documented,
under-reported links to the 9/11 terrorists. In Big Wedding, Hicks hits the road and in Florida, finds FBI
whistle-blower Randy Glass, who documents how the FBI was warned by Pakistani intelligence three years before the
attacks.
