Sommario/riassunto

This ebook consists of a summary of the ideas, viewpoints and facts presented by Michael Scheuer in his book "Marching Toward Hell: America and Islam After Iraq". This summary offers a concise overview of the entire book in less than 30 minutes reading time. However this work does not replace in any case Michael Scheuer's book.<br>Scheuer shows how America's foreign policy has undermined American security and made possible the 9/11 attacks he also claims that these events were foreseeable and  most importantly he offers ways to improve the current situation of America. <br>
