With brutal force and horrific beheadings of hostages, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has shocked the world. They have conquered massive territories in both countries – equal to the size of the United Kingdom – and promise to create a new Muslim caliphate under the strict dictates of Sharia law.
In ISIS: inside the Army of terror, American journalist Michael Weiss and Syrian analyst Hassan Hassan explain how these violent extremists evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent group into a jihadi army of international volunteers who, with sickly produced murder ideas, are spreading violence and mayhem across the Middle East. Beginning with the early days of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the founder of ISIS’s first incarnation as “al-Qaeda in Iraq”, Weiss and Hassan explain who the key players are – from their elusive leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to the former Saddam Baathists in their ranks – where they come from, how they have attracted both local and global support, and how they operate – from their social media strategy to illicit oil revenues. .... |
