On September 11, 2001, the world in which we live was changed forever. The assault on the World Trade Center was the most sophisticated and horrifying in series of operations masterminded by Osama bin Laden and his Jihad group -- an organization that CNN's terrorism analyst Peter Bergen calls Holy War, Inc. One of only a handful of Western journalists to have interviewed the world's most wanted man face to face, Peter Bergen explains the Jihadist network that operates globally and in secrecy.
Immense in scope and unnerving in its findings, Holy War, Inc. reveals:
Holy War, Inc. helps us to see bin Laden's organization as a veritable corporation that has exploited twenty-first-century communications and weapons technologies in the service of a medieval reading of the Koran and holy war. This is essential listening for anyone trying to understand the militant Islamist movements that could determine the fate of governments -- and human lives -- the world over.
Currently serving as CNN's terrorism analyst, Peter L. Bergen received his B.A. in Modern History from Oxford and moved to New York in 1984. He worked for ABC News and for CNN, for which he produced a variety of news stories and documentaries, including one about the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center. His articles have appeared in The New Republic, Vanity Fair, and The Times of London. The recipient of numerous honors, including the Leonard Silk Journalism Fellowship, and a Pew-Journalist-in-Residence at Johns Hopkins University in 2001, he lives in Washington, D.C.
