New Book and forthcoming documentary by Latif Yahia -Released November 20th 2006.

During his training, he witnesses the true evil of the man that he is forced to imitate and the brutality of the Iraqi regime at first hand. While attending state functions and royal audiences as his loathsome master, Latif ponders his escape strategy. Undeniably the life of wealth and excess is enticing but he is no more than a bird in a gilded cage. After several assassination attempts against Latif/Uday fail and during Gulf War 1, Latif makes his escape from his life of hell through the Northern Kurdish Territories, with the help of the CIA he is flown out of Iraq to a "New Life" in the West and this is where "The Black Hole" picks up his remarkable story.  www.arcanum-publishing.com
