Yet most people in the West know very little about it, or their view is clouded by misperceptions and half truths. This widely acclaimed book fills this gap with a comprehensive analysis of al Qaeda-the origins, leadership, ideology, and strategy of the terrorist network that brought down the Twin Towers and continues to threaten us today. Bruce Riedel draws on decades of insider experience-he was actually in the White House during the September 11 attacks-in profiling the four most important figures in the al Qaeda movement: Usama.JihadTerrorismReligious aspectsIslamSeptember 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001War on Terrorism, 2001-2009Electronic books.Jihad.TerrorismReligious aspectsIslam.September 11 Terrorist Attacks, 2001.War on Terrorism, 2001-2009.303.625Riedel Bruce O859363Brookings Institution.Saban Center for Middle East Policy.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910459439103321The search for al Qaeda2156390UNINA
