Imperial Hubris

Comments

I’m reading the book Imperial Hubris: Why the West is Losing the War on Terror , and it is a fascinating reading. The writer, Michael Scheuer, served as the chief of the Bin Laden issue station and is an expert on issues of radical islam, Al-Aqeda and Bin Laden. His point of view, the one that when repeated by certain politicians is considered crazy, is very simple: Radical islam react to America’s actions, not to its values. The book provides interesting analysis how the US imperial policies are being used by Bin Laden to increase the popular support for his cause, and how these policies prolonging the “War on Terror”.

When I’ll finish reading the book I’ll try to write a longer review and some personal thoughts, But don’t wait you should read it your self.
