Críticas:
&quotThe authors of ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror, published this month in the US, spoke to dozens of fighters and members of the group to understand its allure and how it justifies its brutal tactics." -- The Asian Age

&quotWeiss and Hassan offer the fuller and more convincing account. They trace the life of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian petty criminal who missed the jihad against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan, but went on to start his own much bloodier one against America in Iraq." --The Economist

&quotTribal businesses were disrupted or taken over by those seeking their own monopoly on smuggling, and [ISIS] protected its confiscated interest with a mafia s thuggish zeal. It justified killing on the basis of market competition, write Michael Weiss and Hassan Hassan in ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror." -- Middle East Eye

" Weiss and Hassan have produced a detailed and readable book... The authors provide useful insights into Isis governance a combination of divide-and-rule, indoctrination and fear and are well placed for the task." -- The Guardian

&quotA witches brew of pitiless civil war and a flailing tyrant have given birth to Isis. If you want to understand how this calamity has come about, these concise and informative books provide an essential grounding." - The Independent

&quotSyrian researcher Hassan Hassan and the European Council on Foreign Relations Senior Policy Fellow Julien Barnes-Dacy discuss the challenges and threats posed by ISIS." - --ECFR Radio
Reseña del editor:
A revelatory look inside the world's most dangerous terrorist group.

Initially dismissed by US President Barack Obama, along with other fledgling terrorist groups, as a “jayvee squad” compared to al-Qaeda, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has shocked the world by conquering massive territories in both countries and promising to create a vast new Muslim caliphate that observes the strict dictates of Sharia law. 

In ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror, American journalist Michael Weiss and Syrian analyst Hassan Hassan explain how these violent extremists evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent group into a jihadi army of international volunteers who behead Western hostages in slickly produced videos and have conquered territory equal to the size of Great Britain. Beginning with the early days of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the founder of ISIS’s first incarnation as “al-Qaeda in Iraq,” Weiss and Hassan explain who the key players are—from their elusive leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to the former Saddam Baathists in their ranks—where they come from, how the movement has attracted both local and global support, and where their financing comes from. 

Political and military maneuvering by the United States, Iraq, Iran, and Syria have all fueled ISIS’s astonishing and explosive expansion. Drawing on original interviews with former US military officials and current ISIS fighters, the authors also reveal the internecine struggles within the movement itself, as well as ISIS’s bloody hatred of Shiite Muslims, which is generating another sectarian war in the region. Just like the one the US thought it had stopped in 2011 in Iraq. Past is prologue and America’s legacy in the Middle East is sowing a new generation of terror.
