This updated edition of Professor Paul Moorcraft s timely and
controversial book examines the international and domestic threats
to the West from Jihadism. It joins the dots in the Middle East,
Asia and Africa and explains what it means for the home front,
mainly Britain but also continental Europe and the USA. More Brits
are trying to join the Islamic State than the reserve forces. Why?
It puts the whole complex jigsaw together without pulling any
punches. After briefly tracing the origins of Jihadism from the
time of the Prophet, The Jihadist Threat analyses the fall-out from
the Iraq and Afghanistan wars and how far these fuelled the rise of
the self-styled Islamic State and other terror groups and the
extent these pose to European society. Finally, the Author offers
suggestions for defeating this existential threat to the Western
way of life. This well-illustrated book is written from the inside.
Professor Moorcraft, currently the Director of the Centre for
Foreign Policy Analysis, London, has long worked at the heart of
the British security establishment and has operated as a war
correspondent in over thirty conflict zones since Afghanistan in
the 1980s, often alongside frontline Jihadists. Arguably no-one is
better qualified to write on this subject and his knowledge coupled
with forthright views cannot be ignored. This claim is borne out by
his predictions in the original edition which have proved
prescient. This is an important work that fully deserves the
acclaim it has attracted.
