A Terrorist’s Call to Jihad, The Terrorist Perspectives Project and The Canons of Jihad

Sponsored by US Joint Forces Command and written by a team of analysts they employed, this three volume set was published by the Naval Institute Press.
The series attempts to examine what goes on in the mind of terrorists, their reasoning for their action and the Islamic connection. The promulgation of anti-US and Israel propaganda and reasons for 9-11 make for easy justification for actions of Muslim extremists. Much of this ideology is contained in the book “The Call to Global Islamic Resistance” by Setmariam Nasat is called the “Mein Kampf of the Jihad Movement.” The volumes would have been better with proofreading. Spell checking without proofing, an all too common mistake these days left a number of sentences with mistakes.
While a good try, the truly readable account of the Islamic terror movement still awaits publication.
