"A persuasive and utterly frightening picture of the current state
of America's war on terror."--Michiko Kakutani, The New York
Times
We are losing. Five years after the September 11 attacks, America
finds its strategic position deteriorating in the global war on
terror. In "The Next Attack," former White House counterterrorism
experts Daniel Benjamin and Steven Simon show how the terrorist
threat has evolved since 9/11 and how America has undermined its
own goals, not only in the ill-considered invasion and occupation
of Iraq but also through our failure to understand the jihadists'
ideology. Our actions have confirmed Osama bin Laden's message in
the eyes of disaffected Muslims in the Middle East, Europe, and
elsewhere, and in doing so, we are clearing the way for the next
attack.
Benjamin and Simon argue that America needs a far-reaching and
creative new strategy in combating Islamic radicalism, one that
recognizes the costs of over-militarizing the battle against terror
while setting realistic priorities for homeland security. And in a
new afterword, they show how the ideological conflict is deepening
and spreading across an increasingly radicalized Muslim world. We
ignore this warning at our peril.
