The United States government is actively monitoring terrorist cells affiliated with Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network in eleven cities, from Florida to Boston to Denver to Houston. But al Qaeda is hardly our only threat. Hamas, formed in 1987, was run by top Palestinian officials in America from its earliest days, and has tentacles in Texas, California, New Jersey, Virginia, and Illinois. The University of South Florida was infiltrated by the infamous organization known as Palestinian Islamic Jihad -- one of its faculty members even left the country to take that group's top leadership role after his predecessor was assassinated. Hizballah has been tied to cells in North Carolina and Michigan, from which it drew funds and attempted to procure military equipment.
In short, September 11, 2001, was hardly an isolated or unpredictable event. The United States has become home to hundreds and probably thousands of terrorists, and it has become a central node in their international networks. Steven Emerson, hailed as "the nation's leading expert on Islamist terrorism," has been working full-time since 1993 to track the spread of terrorist networks to our shores, even at great personal risk. In 1995, not long after the release of his PBS documentary "Jihad in America," he was informed by federal officials that a South African Islamist death squad had been dispatched after him, and told that he should leave his home immediately. Since then he has not maintained a home address, though he has continued to write and testify under his own name. With the help of a staff of researchers he has followed the terrorists' monetary sources, monitored their attacks and plans, exposed their ties to charitable foundations, and assisted a variety of government agencies in the battle against them. He has obtained videotaped evidence of terrorist training camps and conferences, and tracked the international connections of American operatives to over a dozen organizations.
In American Jihad Emerson reveals the full story that only he knows. This is a frightening and crucial book for anyone who needs to understand the threat within our borders.

这是一本需要静下心来细细品味的書。它没有那种哗众取宠的故事情节,也没有让人肾上腺素飙升的动作场面,但它所散发出的那种深邃的魅力,却能牢牢抓住你的心。作者的文字功底毋庸置疑,遣词造句精炼而富有力量,许多片段读来都令人回味无穷。尤其是对人物情感的细腻捕捉,更是让我印象深刻。那些细微的面部表情,那些欲言又止的沉默,都传递着丰富的信息,让读者能够真正理解角色的内心世界。我喜欢这本书的节奏,它不像某些作品那样急于推进剧情,而是允许故事慢慢展开,让人物的情感和关系逐步深化。这种沉浸式的阅读体验,让我感觉自己不仅仅是在读一个故事,更像是在经历一段人生。
评分从这本书的装帧设计来看,就透露出一种低调而又不失格调的质感,触感也十分舒适,让人不忍释手。翻开书页,一股浓郁的书卷气扑面而来,是那种久违的、能让人沉浸其中的味道。作者的叙事风格非常独特,它不像很多畅销书那样直白,而是带着一种诗意的朦胧感,需要读者主动去挖掘和体会。我尤其喜欢作者对环境的描写,那种细腻到极致的笔触,仿佛能带领读者穿越时空,置身于书中描绘的场景之中。从街角微弱的路灯,到雨滴落在窗户上的声音,都充满了生活的气息,也烘托出人物内心的复杂情感。我常常在阅读的时候,会停下来,反复咀嚼某一段文字,品味其中的深意。这本书给我带来的,不仅仅是阅读的乐趣,更是一种精神上的洗礼。
评分我向来对那些能够深入挖掘人性复杂性的作品情有独钟,而这本《American Jihad》恰恰满足了我的期待。它并没有简单地将人物脸谱化,而是展现了他们在面对困境时,所迸发出的那些矛盾、隐忍,甚至是令人意外的勇气。作者对于心理描写的功力,简直让我叹为观止。那些潜藏在表面平静之下的暗流涌动,那些难以言说的情感纠葛,都被描绘得淋漓尽致,仿佛能直接触碰到角色的灵魂。我常常会因为某个角色的选择而陷入沉思,继而反思自己的人生,思考在相似的境遇下,自己会做出怎样的决定。这种与书中人物的“精神对话”,是阅读的最大乐趣之一。而且,书中对于社会背景的描绘也相当到位,它并非是简单地作为故事的背景板,而是与人物命运紧密相连,揭示了个人在时代洪流中的挣扎与无奈,也引发了我对现实社会的一些思考。
评分这本书的封面设计着实吸引人,一种沉静而又暗流涌动的视觉冲击力,让我在拿到它的时候就有了强烈的阅读欲望。纸张的触感温润,翻动的声音也很舒服,这些细节上的用心,在如今快节奏的出版界显得尤为珍贵。故事的开篇,作者就用一种极为克制却又精准的笔触,勾勒出了一个充满未知与压抑的氛围。人物的塑造并非一蹴而就,而是通过大量的内心独白、细致入微的动作描写,以及与其他角色之间微妙的互动,一点点地渗透进读者的意识。你仿佛能闻到角色身上特有的气息,感受到他们内心的挣扎与期盼。我尤其喜欢作者对环境的刻画,无论是城市里喧嚣的街头,还是某个宁静角落的咖啡馆,都仿佛被赋予了生命,成为故事不可分割的一部分,烘托着角色的心境,也预示着接下来可能发生的事件。那种仿佛身临其境的感觉,让我完全沉浸其中,甚至在阅读的间隙,脑海中还会不自觉地浮现出那些画面。
评分我是一个对历史题材的作品比较挑剔的读者,但《American Jihad》却给了我惊喜。作者在历史细节的考究上,显然付出了巨大的努力,但又不会让这些细节显得枯燥乏味,而是巧妙地融入到故事情节中,成为了推动人物命运的重要因素。书中的人物并不是简单的历史符号,而是活生生的人,他们有自己的情感、欲望,以及在历史大潮中的挣扎。作者并没有试图去评判他们的选择,而是以一种客观却又充满同情的视角,去展现他们的内心世界。我尤其欣赏作者对于不同文化背景下人物的刻画,那种跨越隔阂的理解与碰撞,展现了人性的共通之处,也引发了我对文化多样性的思考。这本书让我认识到,历史不仅仅是冰冷的数据和事件,更是由无数个鲜活的个体故事构成的。
