Tide of Terror
America, Islamic Extremism, and the War on Terror
by Carl Hammer

Paladin is pleased to provide you with this exclusive high-level analysis of the rise of the terrorist threat that all citizens now face in their daily lives. Tracing Sunni Islamic extremism - the kind espoused by Usamah bin Ladin – from its origins in Saudi Arabia, former intelligence officer Carl Hammer chronicles how it came to the fore during the Soviet war in Afghanistan and erupted with the 9/11 attacks on the United States. In addition to detailing the political and military situation in Afghanistan and the neighboring countries at the outset of the subsequent War on Terror, Hammer also offers a frank assessment of the potential for eventually eradicating the threat from Islamic extremism and winning the War on Terror.

Carl Hammer is a former government agent who for many years worked for the secret intelligence service of a European country. He later became a security consultant, and in that capacity was involved in several police investigations concerning, among other things, art theft and organized crime. He was also one of the many Western intelligence officers, volunteers and journalists who visited the Afghan mujahidin, often for extended periods, during the Soviet occupation of Afghanistan during the early 1980s. At that time he also met several of the Islamic extremists who currently look up to Usamah bin Ladin as their leader and role model. His experience in the region led to an official assignment to follow and report on both the developments in Afghanistan and the Islamic extremist movement.
