Overview of United States of Jihad Book

Since 9/11, some 300 Americans--born and raised in Minnesota, Alabama, New Jersey and elsewhere--have been indicted or convicted of terrorism charges. What motivates them, how are they trained and what do we sacrifice in our aggressive efforts to track them? Paced like a detective story, United States of Jihad "weaves together exhaustive research" to tell the "mesmerizing stories" (Anne-Marie Slaughter) of the key actors on the American front. Peter Bergen also offers an inside look at the sometimes controversial tactics of the agencies tracking potential terrorists--from infiltrating mosques to conducting mass surveillance--and at the bias experienced by innocent observant Muslims at the hands of law enforcement, as he builds a newly incisive analysis of U.S. counterterrorism policy. "Read it," says Thomas E. Ricks, "and come away with a new understanding of America and of terrorism."
