This book is a must for anyone concerned about worldwide terrorism. Many people in America and Europe think of the Arabs - the Sons of Ishmael as spoken of in the Bible - and the religion of Islam as a threat to their Western way of life. In this book, we investigate that belief by looking at those Sons of Ishmael: their beginning, their secular and biblical history, the beginning and development of the religion of Islam - and their possible connection to worldwide terrorism. We also look at the history of terrorism - along with the history and current activities of some specific terrorist groups including Hamas, Al Qaeda and Isis. We then pursue the causes of terrorism, some possible solutions to the problem - and finally, we take a look at the probable future of terrorism - including the issue of current and growing cyber-terrorism in the world around us.
