Osama bin Laden called Muhammad "a Prophet of Conquest." Pakistan's Universal Sunnah Foundation brags that under Muhammad's battlefield leadership, "Islam spread an average of 317 square miles per day."
Right now ISIS, al Qaeda, Boko Haram, and the Supreme Leader of Iran know that Islam toppled two of the biggest superpowers in history--Rome and Persia--then took over two-thirds of the inhabited world. Militant Muslims believe that Islam is on the brink of doing it again. The Muhammad Code: How a Desert Prophet Brought You ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram lays bare the origins of this profoundly dangerous belief.
Many contemporary thinkers excuse Islamic violence as a legitimate reaction to Western imperialism. They blame America's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the establishment of Israel in 1948. But Jihad was invented in 624 AD by the only prophet ever to call himself "The Prophet of War." And that prophet was not responding to "legitimate grievances," but an ambition for world conquest.

About the Author
Bloom appears regularly on Saudi Arabia's KSA2-TV, Ekhbariya TV, and on Iran's global English language Press-TV. He has also debated with senior officials from Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood and Gaza's Hamas on Iran's Alalam TV.
Bloom's book Global Brain was the subject of an Office of the Secretary of Defense symposium with participants from the Energy Department, DARPA, IBM, and MIT. Additionally, the New York Military Affairs Symposium tapped Bloom to give a 1,382-year history of jihad.
Bloom also helped launch Farm Aid and create Amnesty International's American presence. He has worked with the United Negro College Fund, the National Black United Fund, and the NAACP.
Bloom is a visiting scholar at NYU, a core faculty member at The Graduate Institute in Meriden, Connecticut, and the author of The Lucifer Principle: A Scientific Expedition Into the Forces of History, Global Brain: The Evolution of Mass Mind From The Big Bang to the 21st Century, The Genius of the Beast: A Radical Re-Vision of Capitalism, and The God Problem: How A Godless Cosmos Creates.
Bloom has lectured at Yale, Stanford, and Columbia University's Department of Neuroscience. He has published on theoretical physics, cosmology, and evolutionary biology. His scientific work has appeared in: arxiv.org, a leading site of advanced theoretical physics and math. Bloom co-founded the Space Development Steering Committee, a group that includes astronauts Buzz Aldrin, Edgar Mitchell, and members from the National Science Foundation, NASA, and the National Space Society.
He has appeared on the Today Show, CBS Morning News, ABC News Overnight, CNN, and 129 times on Clear Channel's Coast to Coast AM.
Britain's Channel 4 TV says that Bloom is "next in a lineage of seminal thinkers that includes Newton, Darwin, Einstein, [and] Freud." Gear Magazine adds that Bloom is "the next Stephen Hawking." And Buckminster Fuller's archivist, Bonnie DeVarco, explains that Bloom is, "The Buckminster Fuller and Arthur C. Clarke of the new millennium." "But," as Gear points out, "he's not just interested in science. He's interested in the human soul."
Bloom has studied Islam for over 55 years. Concludes Marcel Roele--science writer for Holland's Algemeen Dagblad, Intermediair, and HP/De Tijd:
Bloom's probably the only person alive today who can make original and insightful comments on current political developments in the US, Far East or Middle East with the benefit of knowledge of the evolution of the universe in the past 13 billion years.
