Book Review: The Curse of Jihad
(National Review) Mackubin Thomas Owens - Americans who wish to understand the reality of Israel's war against terrorism and its connection to America's own struggle should read Confronting Jihad: Israel's Struggle and the World After 9/11, a collection of columns and unsigned editorials by Saul Singer, editor of the Jerusalem Post's editorial page. "Israel and America are both on the receiving end of what is essentially the same jihad: an expansionist war by militant Islamists who cannot tolerate any form of non-Islamic power." Israel's 9/11 began at Rosh Hashana in 2000, a full year before America's. Since then, Israel has been under a constant and pervasive threat of terrorism unlike any other the world has ever known.
