The imperial strategy of manipulating Muslims to promote imperial ends is at least two centuries old. Part I of this book addresses the colonial legacy, the meaning of jihad, and the parallel movements among Sunni and Shia to confront imperialism, Part II considers the main figures among the neo-Wahhabi" movement: Azzam, Bin Laden, and Zawahiri.

Deals with such themes as: US imperial strategy as an outgrowth of British imperialism, and its transformation following the collapse of the Soviet Union; the significance of the creation of Israel with respect to the imperial project; and, the repositioning of Russia in world politics after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
