Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
"The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS" by Robert Spencer (Aug. 2015), 357 large-size, paperback pages.

Most people when hearing about some "ISIS" terrorist attack against Iraqis, Syrians, Christians, or others, ask:
*What makes the ISIS attackers so angry?
*Why are they so murderous?
*Do they really have an ideology that compels them to murder their captives in so many deviant methods (burning them alive, drowning them, cutting off their victim's heads while still alive)?
*What are these savages up to?
*Are they really a threat to me?
*Why are so many young European Muslims traveling to Iraq to join the militant ISIS forces?

These questions, and many more, are explained well by the long-time, jihadist critic: Mr. Robert Spencer (who has written a number of Islamo- realism books).

But just in case you are just learning of this topic, let us briefly explain what ISIS is as defined by most western media: "Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant/al-Sham": ISIL or ISIS; and for the Arabic purists: "ad-Dawlah al-Islamiyah fi'l-'Iraq wa-sh-Sham" or the less wordy: "al-Daesh" ("The State") or mockingly by its critics as the simple "daesh" ("state" [i.e. non-real state]).

Wow: Amazon has nicely provided a "Look Inside" feature so that a potential buyer can view several select pages to determine whether or not the book is of interest. Double-Wow: whose idea it was I don't know, but Amazon's "Look Inside" feature (as of 17 Aug. 2015) allows a person to look at/read almost 99% of the entire book -- most unusual.

Well, if you don't want to read the entire book right now on Amazon, I'll provide a short review.

A great scholarly work by an acute expert who knows his stuff. If you are wondering whether what Bill Maher said about Islam being the 'connecting tissue' to Islamic terrorism, especially ISIS then look no further than this book. Filled with historical facts, Quranic quotations etc., Robert Spencer in an easy to read format and manner yet highly referenced fashion tells you how it is. I'm grateful for this book and plan to buy it for friends and family. ISIS (I prefer to just say Islam myself) is the Nazism of our times and such evil has to be reckoned with physically but especially ideologically. We can't do that without the right knowledge and this book provides that. When journalists, politicians etc., try to say ISIS has nothing to do with Islam then they obviously haven't read the Hadith, Sira, Qur'an or Classical Islamic scholars (plenty of this beef in the book) not to mention contemporary scholars. Here is one quote in the book by an Egyptian Sheik several years before ISIS formed:

"Jihad is only between Muslims and infidels. . . . Do you understand what I'm saying? Spoils, slaves, and prisoners are only to be taken in war between Muslims and infidels. Muslims in the past conquered, invaded, and took over countries. This is agreed by all scholars--there is no disagreement on this by any of them, from the smallest to the largest, on the issue of taking spoils and prisoners. The prisoners and spoils are distributed among the fighters, which includes men, women, children, wealth, and so on.
When a slave market is erected, which is a market in which are sold slaves and sex-slaves, which are called in the Qur'an by the name 'milk al-yamin', "that which your right hands possess" [Qur'an 4:24].

Robert Spencer is a great scholar of Islam and he has been educating the people over Islamic ideologies such as sharia law, jihad, fatwa, jizya (a capitation tax levied on non-Muslims), beheadings of infidels, death for apostasy, intolerance to other faiths and culture by quoting the verses from Quran and Hadith. This book documents the rise of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) and the dangers it poses to the rest of the world. The author presents facts and scriptural backing to show that ISIS is planning and executing the idea of killings of non-believers. The enslavement of Christian and Yazidi women in ISIS-controlled areas and their harsh treatment is a gross violation of human rights.

Minorities who want to remain in the "caliphate" face three options: converting to Islam, paying a religious levy (jizya) or face death. ISIS is a Salafi group that follows a literal interpretation of Islam which promotes religious violence and regards those who do not agree with its interpretations as infidels or apostates. ISIS believes that they are following the warriors of the original caliphate and it has recruited large populations of young Muslims from around the world. They have also recruited Iraqi children as young as nine to its ranks. The caliphate of ISIS states that the legality of all emirates, groups, states and organizations becomes null by the expansion of the Khalifah's [caliphate's] authority and arrival of its troops to their areas. In fact this is very worrisome for Saudi royal family and other emirates in the region that worry more about losing their power than the fate of its population. ISIS is also stepping up its military capabilities in all possible ways for long global war (jihad).
