Abstract:
The U.S. is in for a long fight against the Al Qaeda Jihad. It’s been hurt and most likely will be again. This book examines the ancient and widespread religion of Islam and the ancient tradition of holy war. Al Qaeda is the enemy, not Islam. It is not a national entity that can be defeated by conventional superpower warfare. The U.S. has to adapt in order to combat their suicide warfare tactics which draw from the enormous population and wealth of the nations of Islam. Imperatives for the U.S. to not lose the war are presented.
