Long before September 11, 2001, Daniel Pipes publicly warned Americans that militant Islam had declared war on America--yet sadly, Americans failed to take heed. The publication of Militant Islam Reaches America finally brought Pipes the attention he deserves. Dividing his work into two parts, Pipes first defines militant Islam, stressing the large and crucial difference between Islam, the faith, and the ideology of militant Islam. He then discusses the relatively new subject of Islam in the United States, and how it has developed rapidly in the last decade. In Militant Islam Reaches America, the product of thirty years of extensive research, Pipes provides one of the most incisive examinations of the growing radical Islamic movement ever written.The paperback edition includes a new essay, "Jihad and the Professors."

V této brilantní a provokativní knize předkládá Daniel Pipes fascinující rozbor konspirativních teorií a jejich důsledků. Ukazuje, jak se v Evropě od počátku křížových výprav vydala tvorba konspirativních teorií dvěma různými směry. Jeden sledoval vytváření tajných společností od templářských rytířů, přes svobodné zednáře až po Radu pro zahraniční vztahy a druhý se přiklonil k názoru, že světu vládne „mezinárodní židovstvo“. Pipes nás seznamuje s domněnkami, že ten či onen z výše uvedených činitelů zosnoval francouzskou či ruskou revoluci, obě světové války i všechny další klíčové události moderních dějin, například, jak šokující následky měly konspirativní teorie v období, kdy se Hitler a Stalin dostali k moci. Spiknutí Daniela Pipese přináší mnoho fascinujících odhalení.
