description: Twentieth and twenty first century Islamic extremism is having a catastrophic impact on our world. Acts of terrorism committed by groups professing Islamic motivations and goals have created a state of crisis in the Middle East. In recent decades attacks and incidents of violence have become a daily threat on a global scale, affecting not only Muslim states in Africa and Asia, but also Europe, Russia, and the United States. What are the roots of this scourge of our time and what can we expect in the future? Islamic Middle East in Crisis investigates the causes of the violence and exposes the serious threats faced by Western democracy through the award-winning reporting of the Independent’s Robert Fisk.
