Jay Sekulow,
one of America’s most influential attorneys, closely examines the rise
of the terrorist groups ISIS and Hamas, explains their objectives and
capabilities and how, if left undefeated, their existence could unleash a
genocide of historic proportions.
Recently, the world has been
shaken by gruesome photos and videos that have introduced us to the now
infamous terrorist group known as ISIS. The world’s wealthiest and most
powerful jihadists, ISIS originated within Al Qaeda with the goal of
creating an Islamic state across Iraq and Syria and unrelenting jihad on
Christians. Separate from ISIS, the terrorist group Hamas has waged an
equally brutal war against Israel. Both groups, if left undefeated, have
the potential to unleash a catastrophic genocide.
Rise of ISIS
gives a better understanding of the modern face of terror, and provides
an overview of the laws of war and war crimes. These laws differentiate
between the guilty and innocent, and explain why the US military and the
Israeli Defense Forces are often limited in their defensive measures.
The
authors’ firsthand experience, including multiple appearances before
the Office of the Prosecutor, International Criminal Court at The Hague,
along with direct contact battling jihadists during operation Iraqi
Freedom lends insight into this important geopolitical issue.
A
must-have for anyone who wants to better understand the conflict that
exists in the middle east, this well-researched and fully annotated
volume is invaluable in revealing how this new brand of terrorism poses a
very real threat to Americans and the world at large. It also serves as
a guide to what we as individuals—and as a nation—can do to stop this
escalating violence, prevent jihad, and protect Israel and America from
this imminent threat.
