Beschreibung
Why are young British Muslims becoming extremists? What are the risks of another home-grown terrorist attack on British soil? By describing his experiences inside these groups, the reasons he joined them and how, after leaving, he recovered his faith and mind, Husein - a former Islamic fundamentalist - hopes to explain the appeal of extremist thought, how fanatics penetrate Muslim communities and the truth behind their agenda of subverting the West and moderate Islam. Writing candidly about life after extremism, he illustrates the depth of the problem that now grips Muslim hearts and minds. He lays bare what politicians and Muslim 'community leaders' do not want you to know. For the first time, an ex-member openly discusses life within radical Islamic organisations.
