What we can confirm

Authoritative reporting and the CNN transcript confirm that Benjamin Netanyahu wrote Fighting Terrorism: How Democracies Can Defeat Domestic and International Terrorists in 1995 and that he associated militant Islam with a possible attack on the World Trade Center. The book's wording described a possible nuclear bomb in the basement, so the claim is broadly accurate but simplifies the specific prediction.
