| Publisher Description: The attack of our nation on September 11, 2001by nineteen Islamic terrorists was well planned, calculated, and carried with the purpose to hit our nation with a simultaneous concentrated effort of death and destruction. The United States of America and the world will never be the same since that terrible day.As the military combat operation concludes in Iraq and within the next two years in Afghanistan, what are some approaches to be examined coupled with conflict resolution paradigms to achieve this from a strategic and diplomatic approach? Recent shortfalls in dealing with Islamic nations, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have shown a gap between acknowledging and examining the religious strands that link the Islamic faith.In looking closely at the Islamic terrorists, one can look at the "religious link or strands" and examine some reasons why these Islamic terrorists and extremists have used religious justifications for violence and acts of terrorism. Examining these religious strands and extreme interpretations can effectively enhance the United States' national strategy, security, both domestically and globally, and policy to ultimately achieve conflict resolution and peace. |
