Inside AL Qaeda
The definitive work on Al Qaeda, this book is based on five years of research, extensive interviews with its members and field research in Al Qaeda supported conflict zones around the globe. The book sheds light on Al Qaeda's financial infrastructure and how the organization trains combat soldiers and vanguard fighters for multiple guerrilla, terrorist and semiconventional campaigns in the Middle East, Asia, Africa, the Caucasus and the Balkans. In addition, Rohan Gunaratna investigates the clandestine Al Qaeda operational network in the West. Finally, Gunaratana shows that for Al Qaeda to be destroyed or seriously weakened there needs to be a multipronged, multiagency and multinational response by the international community.
