Excellent Information,

This review is from: Is Fanatic Islam a Global Threat? (Paperback)
The review written by William Garrison is one point of view. As an devoted reader of all things Muslim, William may have a bias against the position Mordecai is establishing in this book. Please read it for yourself and decide. I myself found it fascinating.

Wake Up - The Islamist Threat,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Is Fanatic Islam a Global Threat? (Paperback)
Self-published? First Printing Jan. 1995 (63 pages); 2nd May 1995 (93 pgs); 3rd Feb. 1996 (170 pgs); 4th May 1996 (200 pgs); 5th Dec. 1997 (280 pgs); and some reprint in June 2003. Author: "Victor Mordecai" which may be a pseudonym for a "Dennis Anilipkin(?)" of Jerusalem, Israel (based upon an autographed copy I posses). The author noted in 1995: "For some reason, there is an agenda by the media to squelch any negative news item involving Moslems" (pg.7). He acknowledges that he is an Israeli Jew who is working to promote Judeo-Christian cooperation with various American Christian groups to alert all that there is a growing Muslim threat against other religions. Chapter 1: Biblical basis of Judeo-Christian civilization; 2: A short history of Islam; 3: the role of the media; 4: One-world government allied with Islam; 5: Is Islam un-American?; 6: Israel's striving for peace in the middle east vs. fanatic Islam; 7: Israel's dilemma in returning territories; 8: Iran's nuclear capability, subversive activities in Europe and persecution of Christians; 9: Iranian persecution of its own Christian citizens; 10: Islamic persecution of Christians in the Holy Land; 11: Palestinian Authority: realities; 12: Israel's moral duty towards Christian south Lebanon; 13: Massacre victims mourned; 14: Algeria: Islamic fratricide; 15: Afghanistan: Another Islamic hell bordering on the ridiculous; 16: global conflicts within Ishmael - Islam; 17: The Islamic genocide in Africa; 18: Farakhan's swamp of hatred; 19: Testimony of a martyr-Rashad Khalifa. Most of this paperback contains lengthy reprints of articles from various magazines to support the author's views. This paperback has a rather "shotgun" approach to it: lots of little news snippets being blasted about, but not much depth to any issue. The author lets the news clippings stand on their own -- he doesn't really tie the loose clippings together. Its like reading a collage of news articles; but outside of noting that the clippings highlight some "wrong" committed by some Muslim terrorists somewhere, the author doesn't harmonize them together to develop a thoughtful idea about the terrorists' actions. The author has simply taken on too many subjects without presenting much insight as to why the terrorists are committing their particular activities in some country. This paperback is almost primarily a reprint of the major terrorist-oriented newspaper clippings between 1995-early 1997. Numerous short articles about Muslims killing Jews and Christians in Indonesia, Afghanistan, Sudan, Pakistan, Kenya, etc. Despite its lack of insightful analysis, it is worthy of perusing through for some terrorist news from foreign sources (primarily Israeli). The Israeli author is to be commended for attempting to highlight the real threat emerging from radical Islamikazes. This paperback has a Paul Revere flavor to it: "Wake up, Wake up, the Muslim terrorists are coming." Not much depth to the announcement, but the warning is clear. Its not that this is a "bad" book, but due to its lack of scholarly and insightful writing (and no bibliography) it is understandable why this is a self-published paperback and written under a pseudonym. This is one of those books whereby the author is given an "E" for effort. Informative for when it was written (c.1997), but just not polished. Borrow it from a library to review before buying. "The Terror Timeline" by Paul Thompson is much, much, much more useful.

Is Radical Islam . . .,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Is Fanatic Islam a Global Threat? (Paperback)
It was written so long ago, it is not exactly relevant. It was written before 911.
