Military historian John F. Murphy Jr. traces the intricate interconnections among various terrorist cells, including Osama bin Laden's al~Qaeda and its relationship with the Taliban of Afghanistan, the Muslim Brotherhood of Egypt, Islamic Moro extremists in the Philippines, and other sympathetic underworld organizations throughout the Middle East and even South America. He also puts recent terrorist attacks in context by linking key events of recent history. From the 1972 killing of Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics to the suicide bombing of the USS Cole in 2000, and the September 11, 2001 World Trade Center attack, Murphy finds a common, terrifing thread. This book shows how Islamic extremists have exploited Arab resentment of American support for the State of Israel to carry on a modern Reign of Terror, which has lasted since the Middle East Six Day War of June 1967. It is a campaign of global terrorism, which reached the United States in the horrible attacks on New York City and Washington, D.C., on September 11, 2001. But more than being another chronicle of terrorism, Sword of Islam also shows how the defeat of the al~Qaeda and Taliban forces in Afghanistan may open up the possibility for a comprehensive and just peace settlement for the entire region of the Middle East and Central Asia. Only then will the extremists be consigned~ permanently~to the dustbin of history. …
