In What You Need to Know about ISIS: Terror, Religion, War and the Caliphate, Al Emid pulls in analysis from a global roster of experts to help readers understand how ISIS got started and where it might go if not conclusively defeated. He separates fact from conjecture, clearly identifies the risks posed by ISIS, and explains how ISIS’ cold-blooded threats jeopardize public safety, inspire groups and individuals to act without conscience and threaten the stability of some governments. Emid’s exhaustive research unmasks the ISIS leaders and exposes them for whom they are: shrewd, illicit businessmen, managers and manipulators of distorted messages and propaganda through social media, but nevertheless, ruthless murderers who will stop at nothing.
