"The resurgence of militant Islam highlighted by the massive terrorist attacks in New York and Washington on September 11, 2001 is a far more complex and dangerous phenomenon than is often suggested by the analysts who reduce these developments to no more than an intensification of the role of religion. "The recent terrorist attacks on New York and Washington have highlighted the problem in its most brutal manifestation.
