The Triumph of Darkness - The Ominous Alliance Between the United States and Islamic Fundamentalism (Paperback)

The Triumph of Darkness is a comprehensive study of the relations between the United States government and various Islamic fundamentalist states and movements in their geopolitical and historical context. It reveals the factors behind their alliance, the success of the alliance in Afghanistan, the Gulf War and Kosovo, and the consequences of the alliance. Furthermore, it studies the relations between the United States and the key Islamic fundamentalist states of Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and Iran - and explains, why two are American allies and one is not.
Above all, the book reveals how the fundamentalists in Washington, Riyadh and elsewhere got the better of secular regimes in one conflict after another - and the lesson that needs to be drawn from their success.
