Recommendation
Harvard don and civil-liberties lawyer extraordinaire Alan Dershowitz turns his keen and combative eye to the war on terrorism, and the results aren’t pretty. His conclusions about the causes of terrorism and the most effective means of fighting will not sit well with many of Dershowitz’s historically steadfast supporters. The normally liberal lawyer lambastes European governments for what he characterizes as their cowardly appeasement of terrorists, which he points to as the central driver of growth in the terrorism industry. He also proclaims flatly that the international community should purposefully refrain from addressing the "root causes" of any group that adopts terrorist means. How this would work in practice is never quite explained, but nevertheless, getAbstract.com recommends this important and damning book as a welcomed addition to the emerging debate on how best to wage the war on terrorism.
