Description
"EITHER THE ISLAMIC STATE WILL DIE, OR WE WILL."
New York Times bestselling author Robert Spencer details the meteoric rise and unheard-of brutality of ISIS
ISIS is in the news every day. The Islamic State is spectacularly dangerous, and curiously wealthy. Who are they? What do they believe? Why do they hate America? Robert Spencer, leading terror expert, answers these questions-and more-while exposing the blood-drenched history and mysterious inner workings of the Islamic State.
The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS is the essential primer to comprehending one of the world's most dangerous enemies. The brutality of ISIS is unquestioned; what remains misunderstood is their strength. Spencer expertly exposes deceptive propaganda and Western misunderstanding of an ever-present threat in an easily accessible and digestible format. ISIS attracts staggering numbers of followers and commits unspeakable acts of violence. Without Spencer's straightforward insight, ISIS remains mysterious.
Spencer exposes the message behind the ever-cryptic ISIS machine, giving us a deeper look into the details of their terror campaign and unprecedented access to ISIS insiders.
In The Complete Infidel's Guide to ISIS, you will learn:
With its social media presence, cyber knowledge, and false promises of glory, ISIS has a presence on the world stage unlike anything we've encountered before. Spencer's sharp, in-your-face assessment of America's newest enemy affirms that they cannot be ignored any longer.

Reviews
"Simultaneously, Iran is the modern iteration of one of human history's richest civilizations and a paranoid jihadist state bent on global conquest, the destruction of Israel, and 'Death to America.' It is our most immediate threat, yet one strangely remote from our understanding. In The Complete Infidel's Guide to Iran, Robert Spencer punctures our common misconceptions and Washington's dangerous delusions about Iran, bringing to bear his unique blend of fearlessness, erudition, and clear-eyed analysis. All Americans, and most especially the political class, would do well to read this highly accessible book and grasp the challenge that confronts us." -- Andrew C. McCarthy, bestselling author, National Review contributing editor, and former federal prosecutor "Robert Spencer has succeeded where many fail, sweeping through Iran's history with a sure touch and an eye for the essential. He has also understood the monumental significance of Iran's material contribution to the September 11, 2001 plot. Despite sectarian enmity, Sunnis and Shia can get along just fine when it comes to killing Jews and Americans." -- Kenneth R. Timmerman, President, Foundation for Democracy in Iran "This masterpiece illuminates the most lethal threats against America and civilization today. Iran aims at global and hegemonic control through its terror networks, which are widely dispersed over the planet. Robert Spencer's vivid, lucid, and comprehensive record of Iran's genocidal apocalyptic nuclear program gives us an invaluable and perspicuous tool for understanding current crucial topics. Essential reading to prevent mass extermination." -- Bat Ye'or, author of Eurabia: The Euro-Arab Axis "Robert Spencer is arguably the most knowledgeable, authoritative, and prolific of American infidels with respect to sharia, jihad, and their most dangerous state sponsor: the Islamic Republic of Iran. Naturally, his is the complete guide for what all of us--Muslim and non-Muslim alike--need to know about Iran." -- Frank Gaffney, founding president of the Center for Security Policy "Eye-opening. Sobering. Informative. Gripping. The Complete Infidel's Guide to Iran is a comprehensive and unique look at the world's foremost and most dangerous rogue state. It's what every American needs to know about the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism. Robert Spencer makes it all clear: Iran's magnificent history and terrible present, the full horror of the Obama-Kerry nuclear deal, Iran's global anti-U.S. and anti-Israel adventurism, its role in 9/11, and the warped theology that makes it so eager to destroy Israel. No one who cares about America's future and the survival of the free world should miss this book." -- Pamela Geller, president, American Freedom Defense Initiative "Iran is the gravest threat to world peace today, and in this essential new book, Robert Spencer explains why. From all the astonishing details of just how disastrous Obama's nuke deal is to Iran's continuing war footing toward the U.S. and Israel and the shocking beliefs that may lead the Iranians to decide to nuke Israel, it's all here. The Complete Infidel's Guide to Iran should be placed on the desk of every official in Washington -- especially in the Oval Office." -- Steven Emerson, executive director of the Investigative Project on Terrorism, and author of Terrorists Among Us: Jihad in America "The brilliant and courageous Robert Spencer rips to shreds the claim that the Iran nuclear deal will bring peace to the world and shows the truly shocking extent to which Iran is a threat to the stability not just of the Middle East, but of the entire world--and has been for decades, while all too many American leaders have dithered, temporized, and appeased it. The Islamic Revolution (enabled by Jimmy Carter), the hostage crisis, the Green Movement--it's all here, including little-known facts about Iran's role in 9/11 and its sponsorship of terror around the globe. Here is the one book that will put to rest forever the idea that the Islamic Republic will ever be a peaceful member of the family of nations, and shows what's at stake if our leaders continue to pretend otherwise." -- Lieutenant General (ret.) William G. "Jerry" Boykin, Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence 2002--2007
