Farzana Hasan reviews "The Confrontation" by Walid Phares: “The free world can still win”
"Walid Phares contends there is a future jihad unfolding in the form of a confrontation that will engulf the entire world. In his book entitled The Confrontation: Winning the War against Future Jihad, (Palgrave McMillan, 2008), he elucidates the antecedents, circumstances and implications of militant jihad in the twenty-first century. This jihad according to the author is an authoritarian, hegemonic enemy that must be challenged at the political, military, diplomatic and theological level."

"Future Jihad" cited in ENews "Was Pakistan Sheltering Bin Laden?"
"According to Dr. Walid Phares, author of Future Jihad and other studies of jihadist terrorism, the jihadists operate under a unique maxim. It is not, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Rather, jihadists follow a different line: "The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy, but I don't have to tell him that. I can pretend to be his friend." (From Was Pakistan Sheltering Bin Laden, in ENews Park Forest)

Also the losses of murdered or en-slaved of black Africans in the Sudan is twice the size of the entire population living in Gaza.

Book Review in the Washington Times: "Mideast turmoil’s historic roots"
"The author, right after Sept. 11, advocated that the United States “unleash the mother of democracy programs by connecting and partnering with dissidents, [nongovernmental organizations], women’s movements, students, artists and all those willing to rise up against authoritarianism.” Now, nearly a decade later, we are taking the first steps to do that, although security interests lead us to respond somewhat differently from one country to the next" (Washington Times reviewing Walid Phares' book The Coming Revolution: Struggle for Freedom in the Middle East"
