Synopsis

The terror masters of ISIS are determined to get America's attention. They've humiliated the Iraqi Army we trained and seized territory in Iraq that we had secured at the cost of so many American lives. They've beheaded American journalists on camera in a direct challenge to the power and resolve of the United States. And now ISIS is calling for "city wolves" across the United States to act on their dedication to the Islamic State's blood-drenched ideology and murder innocent American citizens at random. Who is ISIS? Where did it come from, and what is driving its successful campaign of murder and conquest? Our government and our media alike seemed to be blindsided by the Islamic State's blitzkrieg-like advance, which forced American troops back into Iraq. ISIS has conquered a territory roughly the size of the state of Indiana, rules over eight million terrorized souls, and has even revived the practice of legal slavery. And yet the true motivations, inner workings, and future plans of this terror state and its mysterious caliph seem almost as obscure as when ISIS first burst onto the world scene. In ISIS Exposed, veteran investigative reporter Erick Stakelbeck gets inside the story of the new caliphate and reveals just how clear and present a threat it is.

About this title

Review:

"If you want to know what makes ISIS tick, Erick Stakelbeck is your man. In ISIS Exposed: Beheadings, Slavery, and the Hellish Reality of Radical Islam, Stakelbeck reports the shocking facts about the world's most vicious terrorist organization, and shows why America can't afford to look away." --Sean Hannity, host of Hannity on Fox News and The Sean Hannity Show on Premiere Radio and Cumulus and author of the New York Times bestsellers Deliver Us from Evil, Conservative Victory, and Let Freedom Ring "Don't miss this very timely book. As Erick Stakelbeck shows, the Islamic State has opened a newly effective front in a worldwide terror war against the West, with tactics that appeal strongly to potential recruits right here in the U.S. ISIS Exposed will give you the facts you need to understand the ISIS threat and hold our elected officials responsible for countering it." --Newt Gingrich, former Speaker of the House of Representatives and New York Times bestselling author of Winning the Future, Real Change, and Breakout "In ISIS Exposed, intrepid reporter Erick Stakelbeck excavates deep into the ISIS threat, shining a hard light on who they are, their horrific extremes in pursuit of a nightmare scenario, and why they're so successful at recruiting young people from the West to join them in Syria--or worse, stay home and attack America from within. To understand this grave, deadly threat to world peace, read this riveting book, and quickly." --Edwin Black, New York Times bestselling author of IBM and the Holocaust and Financing the Flames "Sooner or later, America is going to have to face the facts about ISIS. Minimizing the threat and applying half measures against it, as President Obama has done, will only ensure that the terrorism continues to metastasize. In ISIS Exposed: Beheadings, Slavery, and the Hellish Reality of Radical Islam, Erick Stakelbeck reports the facts about the Islamic State: how it grew out of al Qaeda, spread mayhem across the Middle East, and is inspiring hundreds of young people--from London and Minneapolis to Syria--to commit acts of violence, conquest, and brutality." --Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas, host of Huckabee on Fox News, and presidential candidate
