    About this ebook

    ISIS rocketed onto the world stage seemingly out of nowhere, beheading American hostages, bulldozing international borders, routing the American-trained Iraqi Army, and carving out a new state that rules eight million people. Now, after the shocking San Bernardino and Paris attacks, it has become devastatingly clear that no one is safe from the threat of ISIS. The group has managed to radicalize and recruit Muslims all over the world and is staging an all-out "holy war" against the West, while U.S. leaders remain stumped.

    In The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS, New York Times bestselling author Robert Spencer reveals the terrifying inner workings of the Islamic Stateits successful recruitment program, how it is financing its expansion, and the ideology that is driving its success. As Spencer explains, the Islamic State has taken the first steps on the path to becoming a serious world powersteps that Osama bin Laden and al-Qaeda dreamed of but were afraid to take. The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS is your one-stop easy reference for all you need to know about ISISincluding how "infidels" can stop its reign of terror.

      Scholarly summary of what comprises Islam's revered Koran. Well-written, easy-to-read, interesting account of this syncretic political belief system that purports to be a revealed religious faith. The book is written with bravado and humor. But, also from a point-of-view that the West is under siege. This of course is a debatable point. What the reader cannot help but understand is that Mohammedanism was cobbled together from Judaism and Christianity. As well, Traditional Western readers have here a clear description of fundamental differences between European and Asian / Middle Eastern Civilizations. An instructive book that should I think be recommended reading throughout the English-speaking world.

      I was disappointed in this book. Whether it’s true or not hardly seems to matter; I was still disappointed.Spencer hopes to introduce casual readers to the words of the Koran, and he has nothing good to say about it. He compares it to Mein Kampf. Here are some of the chapter titles:The Muslims’ Worst Enemies: The Koran on the JewsThe Koran on Christians: They’re Not So Hot, EitherThe Koran on Women: Crooked and InferiorThe Koran Teaches Nonviolence—Oh, and Violence, TooHere’s the bottom line: If you want to know what’s in the Holy Book of Islam, read Spencer. If you want to know what Muslims believe, read Karen Armstrong. Islam is a religion of peace, which—like Christianity—attracts a few extremists. Like Christianity, its holy texts are in places downright abominable. Like Christians, practicing believers generally learn to ignore or spiritualize the ungodly portions of their scriptures.Spencer says about his work, “You will find nothing in this book about Islamic ritual practices or prayers. This is an Infidel’s guide, focusing on where the Koran came from and its specific portions that are—or should be—of concern to Infidels.” It is, by Spencer’s admission, one-sided, and not reflective of general Muslim practices.Tomorrow, I’ll balance this with a discussion of the Texts of Terror within the Bible, so we can realize how much Christians ignore in their holy book. It might help put things in perspective.
