Some endorsements
1- A blisteringly honest, thoroughly documented, and
piercingly insightful investigation of the root causes within Islam of the
fanaticism and violence that today threatens the entire world. Should be
required reading at the State Department and the White House. -- Robert
Spencer, director of Jihad Watch and author of The Politically Incorrect Guide
to Islam and the Crusades (Regnery)
2-
A powerful, no holds barred look at an ideology of hate and what must be
done to eradicate it. This book pulls no punches. A must read for anyone
seeking to understand Islamist terrorism" Professor
Kim Ezra Shienbaum, Ph.D Dept. of Political Science, Rutgers
University Camden, NJ. Chief Editor of Beyond Jihad.
3- With great courage, perspicacity, and trenchant
wit, Ali Sina demolishes a host of politically correct myths about Islam,
and its founder. One wishes policymaking elites would avail themselves of
his insights which shatter the dangerous delusions of their own invented
Islam. Andrew
G. Bostom, MD, author of
“The Legacy of Jihad”
4- Half a century ago Whittaker Chambers in his book
“Witness”, warned us about the deadly danger of Communism. Now Ali
Sina issues this clarion call regarding the threat of Islam.
"Witness" could only have been written by one who knew Communism
from within; the same can be said of Understanding
Islam and the Muslim Mind that is written from a perspective of one who knew
Islam intimately from within. Islam is more dangerous than communism
because it is camouflaged as “religion”. Jacob
Thomas, Consultant on Middle Eastern affairs / Columnist
5- A truly thought provoking and profound reading.
Dr. Sina's unique perspective offers incredible insight and knowledge of
the threats which face the civilized world. Jesse
Petrilla, Founder & Chair of the United American Committee
6- I heartily recommend Ali Sina's book. It is not
only enlightening at an urgent time in world history. It is also written
by a man who has walked the walk. I know of no other writer on the topic
who pens with such authority and reality. He is a superb expositor for he
is a thorough researcher of Islam as a warring cult. J.
Grant Swank, Jr., Columnist,
Pastor,
New Hope
Church

Windham

7- Ali Sina has
become a key player in the Islamic Reformation; this work should
educate and reach people with the power to change things for the
better. His honest analysis cuts deep into contemporary and medieval Islam
leaving his readers with important questions. This fermentation of introspective
debate and critique is badly needed and long overdue. Chris
Blackburn, Director of
givethemlight.org- A Foundation for Democracy and Global Pluralism.
8- Ali Sina is one of the
bravest thinkers of our time. Read this brilliant and piercing analysis if
you want to understand why there is no such thing as a moderate Islam, and
why failure to understand this could put us all at great risk. Wolfgang Bruno,
writer, author of "Reformation Impossible"
9- The war against jihad can and must be won, in
spite of the Western elite class that is instinctively prone to
appeasement and betrayal. The first task is to analyze frankly the
identity and character of the enemy and the nature of the threat. It is
essential to discard the taboos and to discuss Islam without fear or
guilt, or the shackles of mandated thinking. Ali Sina's new book makes an
important contribution to that objective.
“If you know the enemy and know yourself you need
not fear the results of a hundred battles,” says Sun Tzu. Thanks to this
book we know the jihadist enemy a little better -- his core beliefs, his
role models, his track-record, his mindset, his modus operandi, and his
intentions. We also know his weaknesses, which are many, above all his
inability to develop a prosperous economy or a functional, harmonious and
good society.
The main problem remains with ourselves, however,
with those among us who have the power to make policy and shape opinions,
and who will reject and condemn Ali Sina's diagnosis. Our own elite class
treats the jihadist mindset as a pathology that can and should be treated
by treating causes external to Islam itself. The result is a plethora of
proposed multiculturalist “cures” that are as likely to succeed in
making us safe from terrorism as snake oil is likely to cure leukemia. Dr. S. Trifkovic, Foreign
Affairs Editor CHRONICLES chroniclesmagazine.org/cgi-bin/newsviews.cgi
