Over the past several decades, Islamic terrorists have transformed themselves into a sophisticated global network of self-proclaimed holy warriors. These fighters no longer confine themselves to local battles against incumbent Muslim regimes in a bid to establish theocratic states. The Jihadi Salafis (a name they would use to describe themselves) have instead turned their fury toward the United States.

The Name of the Enemy weaves complex political, sociological, and religious issues together to provide a comprehensive understanding of the forces involved and the possible future of Islamic terrorism.This exceptional production is offered by Inaudio as Global Jihad: Understanding September 11, and was awarded Book of the Year by Foreword Magazine.
