    He was a man of peace who became Afghanistan's most bril- liant military leader. He was America's best Afghan ally who warned about the attacks of 9-11. He fought for democracy in Afghanistan until he was assassi- nated by Osama bin Laden. He was Ahmed Shah Massoud. “Because of what is happening in Afghanistan today, people should know who Massoud was and what he stood for — and why he was killed,” says MaryAnn T. Beverly, author of the book about Massoud From That Flame. “He stood for freedom, women’s rights, religious tolerance. His is a message that needs to be delivered to people in all parts of the world today.”

    AHMED SHAH MASSOUD: WHO HE IS AND WHY IT’S


    IMPORTANT THAT YOU SHOULD CARE

    Wilkes-Barre, PA - He was a man of peace who became Afghanistan's most bril-


    liant military leader. He was America's best Afghan ally who warned about the
    attacks of 9-11. He fought for democracy in Afghanistan until he was assassi-
    nated by Osama bin Laden. He was Ahmed Shah Massoud.

    “Because of what is happening in Afghanistan today, people should know who


    Massoud was and what he stood for — and why he was killed,” says MaryAnn T.
    Beverly, author of the book about Massoud From That Flame. “He stood for
    freedom, women’s rights, religious tolerance. His is a message that needs to be
    delivered to people in all parts of the world today.”

    Ahmed Shah Massoud is generally credited as “the man who ended the Cold
    War” because he defeated the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. When his country
    was besieged by the Taliban, Massoud once again fought for the land and peo-
    ple he loved. He was killed on September 9, 2001 by agents of Osama bin
    Laden, the assassination marking the go ahead for the attacks on America two
    days later.

    “Much like Jesus or Martin Luther King or Lincoln, Massoud was a man of peace
    with a message of hope; naturally, he was killed because of that,” Ms. Beverly
    explains. “I wanted to capture that in From That Flame and not merely give
    you stale facts and figures. Instead, I present to you Massoud the man and his
    ideas that could save a nation.”

    From That Flame is available in bookstores nation-wide and online. You can
    read a sample from the book as well as learn more about Massoud at
    www.fromthatflame.com. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the book
    are being donated to the Ahmed Shah Massoud Foundation to build a school for
    girls in Massoud's Panjshir Valley.
