Book Summary
Islamist terrorism is not about religion, says leena al olaimy, an Arab Muslim, Dalai Lama fellow, and social entrepreneur. She identifies the economic, social, and political factors that are its true driving forces and offers innovative strategies to address them that have proven far more effective than military interventions alone. From purchasing pay-per-view pornography to smoking pot, many so-called Muslim terrorists prove by their actions that they arent motivated by devotion to religion, leena al olaimy argues. So why do they really turn to violence, and what does that tell us about the most effective way to combat terrorism? Al olaimy sets the stage by providing a quick, thoughtful grounding in the birth of Islam in a barbaric game of thrones-like seventh-century Arabia, the evolution of fundamentalist thought, and the political failures of the postcolonial period. She shows that terrorists are motivated by economic exclusion, lack of opportunity, social marginalization, and political discrimination. This is why using force to counter terrorism is ineffective-itt exacerbates the symptoms without treating the cause. Moreover, data shows that military interventions led to the demise of only 12 percent of religious terrorist groups. Combining compelling data with anecdotal evidence, al olaimy sheds light on unorthodox and counterintuitive strategies to address social woes that groups like ISIS exploit. For example, she describes how Indonesia, the worlds most populous Muslim country, has decreased terrorism while paradoxically becoming more overtly religious. Or how mechelen, the city with Belgiums largest Muslim population, adopted integration policies so effective that not one of its 20, 000 Muslims left to join ISIS. Using religion, neuroscience, farming, and even love, this book offers many inspiring examples and-forr once-ann optimistic outlook on how we can not just fight but prevent terrorism.
