Reviews

Excellent Reference on the Mind of the Terrorist I have spoken to Mr. Phares, calling him up and congratulating him because I was so taken with this book. It is informative, incisive and intelligent. I believe that it is a MUST READ for every American, every human being, to understand the real threat of radical Islam in the world.
Future Jihad An in depth analysis of Radical Islam and its impact on the future of democracy in the west. The author rambles a little and repeatedly emphasises points, but the content is solid and the analyses are good.
Excellent Introduction to the Jihadist Threat This was the first book that I read on Jihadism and its threat to America. I was concerned that I would encounter a book advocating hatred toward Muslims - those with similar fears need not be concerned. I found this to be a well-written, easily read book that can be understood by people who, like me, are beginners on this topic. Provides an outstanding history of jihadism and the reasons jihadist believe as they do. The recommendations for ways to counter this threat are thought provoking and need to be discussed and implemented if deemed appropriate. You will find yourself talking and thinking about the arguments Mr. Phares presents long after you finish the book - Highly recommend.
A Very Profound Historic Guide for the Topic Its a must to read for any interesting in the topic wether in academia or goverments. Might become a historical outlook required in training officers to deal with contemporary threats.
If you want to see how they are going to destroy us... Read on... This is a must for anyone who wants to see how they are destroying us, and what they intend. It is an absolute must for every American, Canadian, European, Latino.... this is a war of culture, religion, and people versus people. We are in the last stage of war, where one people rise up against another irrespective of nation, politics, philosophy, resources or technology. It is an all out war to the death of one, or the other. There is no compromise, there is no middle ground, there is no peace. There is only death or surrender.
