Usama Bin Laden’s greatest fear was not capture or death, but the exposure of al-Qaeda’s secrets. At great risk to themselves and the entire mission, the US Special Operations Forces, who carried out the Abbottabad raid that killed Bin Laden, took an additional eighteen minutes to collect Bin Laden’s hard drives and thereby expose al-Qaeda’s secrets. In this ground-breaking book, Nelly Lahoud dives into Bin Laden’s files and meticulously distills the nearly six thousand pages of Arabic private communications.

Enough Already: Time to End the War on Terrorism is a masterly history of these chaotic, tragic and above all futile conflicts, ranging with his usual excoriating accuracy from Mali to Pakistan, from Iraq to Yemen by way of Syria and Libya. Millions are dead, disabled or languish desperately far from their homes as the direct result of our blunders, bewilderment and outright malicious stupidity.

This book reveals how China has used the US-led Global War on Terror as cover for its increasingly brutal suppression of the Uyghur people. China’s actions, it argues, have emboldened states around the globe to persecute ethnic minorities and severely repress domestic opposition in the name of combatting terrorism. Within weeks of the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington, the Chinese government announced that it faced a serious terrorist threat from its largely Muslim Uyghur ethnic minority.

El 11 de diciembre de 1987, José Mari tenía trece años, y Víctor, once. Residían con su familia en la casa cuartel de la Guardia Civil de Zaragoza. Poco después de las seis de la mañana el edificio voló en pedazos. Solo una pared quedó en pie.

De héroe a villano: Los 30 años de lucha contra la banda armada del comisario Enrique Pamies, "Lleida", que trabajó a las órdenes del PSOE y del PP. "La lucha antiterrorista supone andar descalzo por un filo que corta. En un lado está la legalidad y en el otro la ilegalidad. Para poder avanzar, unas veces hay que apoyar el pie en uno de los lados y otras en el otro. Es mentira que solo con el Estado de derecho se acaba con el terrorismo. Quien diga lo contrario falta a la verdad o no sabe de lo que habla."

Vehement widerspricht Andreas von Bülow der offiziellen Version der Anschläge vom 11. September: Ohne geheimdienstliche Unterstützung war eine solche Operation nicht durchzuführen. Seine brisanten Thesen sind ein Angriff auf die Verlogenheit der CIA. Nur Stunden nach dem Terroranschlag vom 11. September hatte die US-Regierung Fotos und Steckbriefe aller Attentäter, wusste sie Bescheid über alle Drahtzieher und Hintermänner. Und blitzartig war auch Präsident George Bushs Strategie gegen die Mächte des Bösen fertig. Zufall? Bülow, früherer Bundesminister, zweifelt die offizielle Version vehement an.

Connecting the dots between political violence and "law and order" politics, Chard reveals how American counterterrorism emerged in the 1970s from violent conflicts over racism, imperialism, and policing that remain unresolved today.

As the first decade of the 21st century has made brutally clear, the very definitions of war and the enemy have changed almost beyond recognition. Threats to security are now as likely to come from armed propagandists, popular militias, or mercenary organizations as they are from conventional armies backed by nation-states. In this timely book, national security expert Max G. Manwaring explores a little-understood actor on the stage of irregular warfare - the gang.

Depuis 2015 la menace terroriste nous est devenue familière, voire ordinaire. Si l'occident avait déjà été violemment touché en 2001, l'histoire du djihadisme remonte à bien plus loin. Comment le terrorisme islamiste est-il apparu ? Quel rôle a joué l'occident en utilisant ce phénomène contre le nationalisme panarabique pendant la guerre froide ? Comment l'Arabie Saoudite diffuse-t-elle les idées salafistes ? Quel rôle ont joué les Frères musulmans ?

In this most original examination of America's post-9/11 culture, Susan Faludi shines a light on the country's psychological response to the attacks on that terrible day. Turning her observational powers on the media, popular culture, and political life, Faludi unearths a barely acknowledged but bedrock societal drama shot through with baffling contradictions. Why, she asks, did our culture respond to an assault against American global dominance with a frenzied summons to restore "traditional" manhood, marriage, and maternity?

Am 19. Dezember 2016 kam es auf dem Weihnachtsmarkt am Berliner Breitscheidplatz zu einer LKW-Attacke, die insgesamt zwölf Menschen das Leben kostete. Für diesen schwersten Terroranschlag in Deutschland seit der Bombe auf das Münchner Oktoberfest von 1980 gilt laut offizieller Version der Tunesier Anis Amri noch immer als alleiniger Täter. Doch nach über vierjähriger Aufklärung in mehreren parlamentarischen Untersuchungsausschüssen gibt es daran begründete Zweifel. Wenn nicht Amri, wer saß dann am Steuer des LKW? Wer waren die Mittäter und Helfer?

C'è stato un tempo in cui, nella Sicilia lacerata da una furiosa guerra di mafia, si fecero largo gruppi di picciotti senza regole e senza padroni, che si misero in testa di arricchirsi con le rapine e con le estorsioni. Presto vennero coinvolti nelle faide tra vecchi e nuovi boss di Cosa nostra e si trasformarono in killer spietati. Li chiamavano stiddari. Tra la fine degli anni Ottanta e gli inizi dei Novanta seminarono il terrore nelle province di Agrigento, Caltanissetta, Enna, Ragusa e Trapani.

Chi sono gli uomini che hanno combattuto in prima fila il terrorismo negli anni di piombo?

Ne nasce una storia sincera, per molti aspetti nuova, che smonta sospetti.
