An absolute must-read for anyone who wants to understand the risk we all face from radical Islam., There are now numerous good books contributing to our understanding of post-Cold War jihadi groups such as ISIS... The Rise of Islamic State is easily one of the best - like all really good journalism, it combines astonishing reportage with an ability to contextualize and analyze broader factors., [A] superb piece of journalism, unsparing in its analysis of the folly of the Obama administration., Concise, valuable, and a compelling read for anyone- general reader or specialist- interested in ISIS., Incredibly rich and valuable for the specialist and non-specialist alike...it is a rich and nuanced piece touching on all the points that the arrival of ISIS has raised in Syria and Iraq., "Weiss and Hassan provide a detailed explanation of how the Islamic State "manages savagery" on the ground…this account of the Islamic State in Iraq is a valuable summation and the most serious book-length study of the Islamic State to be published so far.", ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror is brilliantly easy to read...concise yet thorough, it will surprise and shatter the beliefs of many., ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror , by Michael Weiss and Hassan Hassan, does a first-rate job of describing the Islamic State's layers... in Syria and in Iraq., "The authors have produced a readable and sound description of the group's rise and defining characteristics." -- H.R. McAster , The International Institute for Strategic Studies, Michael Weiss and Hassan Hassan provide a comprehensive account of how the Islamic State came to be, who is to blame for its emergence, and why world leaders should be worried about its expansion., "Weiss and Hassan have produced a detailed and readable book. Their informants include American and regional military officials and intelligence operatives, defected Syrian spies and diplomats, and - most fascinating of all - Syrians who work for Isis (these are divided into categories such as politickers, pragmatists, opportunists and fence-sitters). The authors provide useful insights into Isis governance - a combination of divide-and-rule, indoctrination and fear - and are well placed for the task. Hassan, an expert on tribal and jihadist dynamics, is from Syria's east. Weiss reported from liberated al-Bab, outside Aleppo, before Isis took it over."--Robin Yassin-Kassab, author of The Road from Damascus , is writing (with Leila al-Shami) a book on the civil activists of the Syrian revolution, recounted in painstaking detail...the book presents a granular analysis of the IS's organization, ideology, funding and recruitment., Weiss and Hassan give a concise yet detailed account of the rise of the terror movement, anybody who wants to work out where they stand on Iraq and Syria will find this book invaluable, "The authors have produced a readable and sound description of the group's rise and defining characteristics." - H.R. McAster , The International Institute for Strategic Studies

Synopsis
A revelatory look inside the world's most dangerous terrorist group. With brutal attacks across the world--Paris, Beirut, Egypt, Turkey--the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) has proved itself the greatest threat today. They have conquered massive territories in Syria and Iraq in a bid to create a new Muslim caliphate under the strict dictates of Sharia law. In ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror , American journalist Michael Weiss and Syrian analyst Hassan Hassan explain how these violent extremists evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent group into a jihadi army of international volunteers who, with slickly produced murder videos, are spreading violence and mayhem across the globe. Beginning with the early days of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the founder of ISIS's first incarnation, Weiss and Hassan explain who the key players are--from their leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi to the former Saddam Baathists in their ranks--where they come from, how they have attracted both local and global support, and how they operate--from their social media strategy to their illicit oil revenues. Political and military maneuvering by the United States, Iraq, Iran, and Syria have fueled ISIS's explosive expansion. Drawing on original interviews with former US military officials and current ISIS fighters, the authors also reveal the internecine struggles within the movement itself, as well as ISIS's bloody hatred of Shiite Muslims, which is generating another sectarian war in the region. A new generation of terror has dawned in the world and to understand how to stop it, we must understand who they are., In ISIS: Inside the Army of Terror, American journalist Michael Weiss and Syrian analyst Hassan Hassan explain how these violent extremists evolved from a nearly defeated Iraqi insurgent group into a jihadi army of international volunteers who behead Western hostages in slickly produced videos and have conquered territory equal to the size of Great Britain. Beginning with the early days of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the founder of ISIS's first incarnation as al-Qaeda in Iraq,' Weiss and Hassan explain the key players and their origins, and how the movement has gained support.'
