Nearly two million people were slaughtered in the four-year
Nigerian/Biafran Civil War. American educated Nnamdi Agbakoba
writes a chilling account of bloodshed and almost miraculous
survival in The Terrors of War. As much a story of war as of peace,
of cowardice as of heroism, he reveals the spiritual lessons
learned, as well as a powerful philosophical viewpoint found in the
Bible and the Koran. Woven together, The Terrors of War is a
uniquely compelling book. Author Agbakoba takes his account far
beyond the events of the mid-sixties, when Nigeria's Head of State
and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces was assassinated and the
country was drowning in a sea of anarchy, starvation, and
brutality. He delves into fascinating parallels between that civil
war and the American presence in Iraq. The chapters on the
America/Iraq crisis parts 1, 2 and 3 ministers loads of scriptural
therapy very appropriate for application in the current crisis in
Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Nigeria and elsewhere. There are no wiser
words than those of the author: War is a reflection of a total
breakdown of diplomatic dialogue and discussions aimed at resolving
differences. War breaks out when compromise, tolerance,
forgiveness, and diplomatic discussions completely fail. In Terrors
of War, the futile and violent results of hatred are studied. .
.and important conclusions are reached.
