    About this audiobook

    THE DEFINITIVE BOOK ON ISIS
    Jay Sekulow, one of America’s most influential attorneys, closely examines the rise of the terrorist groups ISIS and Hamas, explains their objectives and capabilities and how, if left undefeated, their existence could unleash a genocide of historic proportions.

    Recently, the world has been shaken by gruesome photos and videos that have introduced us to the now infamous terrorist group known as ISIS. The world’s wealthiest and most powerful jihadists, ISIS originated within Al Qaeda with the goal of creating an Islamic state across Iraq and Syria and unrelenting jihad on Christians. Separate from ISIS, the terrorist group Hamas has waged an equally brutal war against Israel. Both groups, if left undefeated, have the potential to unleash a catastrophic genocide.

    Rise of ISIS gives a better understanding of the modern face of terror,andprovides an overview of the laws of war and war crimes. These laws differentiate between the guilty and innocent, and explain why the US military and the Israeli Defense Forces are often limited in their defensive measures.

    The authors’ firsthand experience, including multiple appearances before the Office of the Prosecutor, International Criminal Court at The Hague, along with direct contact battling jihadists during operation Iraqi Freedom lends insight into this important geopolitical issue.

    A must-have for anyone who wants to better understand the conflict that exists in the middle east, this well-researched and fully annotated volume is invaluable in revealing how this new brand of terrorism poses a very real threat to Americans and the world at large. It also serves as a guide to what we as individuals—and as a nation—can do to stop this escalating violence, prevent jihad, and protect Israel and America from this imminent threat.

    In this expanded edition, Jay tracks the most recent events in the war against ISIS, exposes new dangers, and provides a detailed plan to defeat ISIS and prevent genocide against Christians in the Middle East. ISIS is still growing, and its reach—as Jay predicted in the first edition—is extending across the globe.

    Includes a link to an exclusive track from the Jay Sekulow Band, "Where I Stand," a moving tribute to the persecuted Christians in Iraq.

      One of the least objective books I have ever read. Is actually more about Hamas or the bad guys and Israel aka the nice ones.

      Also, "in the United States, thankfully, we don't have a history of genocide", like, seriously?!

      Full of exaggeration, stereotyping, scaremongering; Muslim-bashing and unreasonably favouring Israel.

      A lot of information packed into 2 hours. Will have to re-listen to catch what I've missed. This book is good, but intense.
    • 1/5
      This is a propaganda book. Other reviews have said it, the author makes grand, sweeping claims based on US exceptionalism, with atrocities committed by ISIS as the justification. This divides the argument into strict polarities: in that US intervention is the only way, and if you don't agree wholeheartedly, you are part of the problem. This is an extremely reductionist view of international relations and the importance of sovereignty in international law. This book is sensationalist. Invest your time elsewhere.

      This book is Informative, interesting, easy to understand and scary.
    • 1/5
      There's nothing definitive about this.

      Lacking in substantial information of ISIS' organizational structure, goals, means, and recent history, this work brushes over ISIS as AQI and goes at length on the potential threat to Israel. While this threat is real, not nearly enough attention is given to other nearby locales - particularly Iraq and Syria, surprisingly.

      This is a book of propaganda. Not of fact. There's enough hard evidence to damn ISIS through discussion of its own actions and aspirations - why ignore that and pontificate on something tangentially related?
