“The Islamist – book review”

SNIPPET: “Ed Husain’s The Islamist was published in 2007, and since then it has become probably the most referred to work so far on radicalisation in Britain.”

SNIPPET: “Framing the solution, as The Islamist implies, as a matter of “right Islam” versus “wrong Islam” is therefore misleading and inaccurate. If Islamism is being used as a bridge over a social gap, the solution is unlikely to be theological. The image of easy going weed-smoking free love (Islamic style) Sufis has always appealed to some in the West. After 9/11, it has gained new supporters who see it as a “form of Islam that we can live with”. Quite a few Muslims seem to have become drawn to Sufistic approaches to Islam precisely because it seems more West-friendly.”

“Financial Crisis Puts New Urgency on Security, Chairman Says”

By Jim Garamone
American Forces Press Service

SNIPPET: “WASHINGTON, April 2, 2009 – The global financial crisis is adding a layer of uncertainty that could exacerbate problems in many parts of the world, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff said on NBC-TV’s “Today Show” this morning.

“This global financial crisis in the months ahead could have a significant effect on security around the world,” Navy Adm. Mike Mullen told host Matt Lauer during the interview. “That creates an additional sense of urgency [for leaders] in resolving that as fast as we can.”

The chairman did not speculate as to where problems might crop up.”
