Book Description:
Terrorism, the plague thus far of the 21st century, requires organizations to fund and inculcate perspective members. These organizations have grown steadily while the developed countries have either ignored them, wished they would go away, or taken outright steps to affront them. This new book presents the history, tactics and connections of foreign terrorist organizations as well as detailing some of their organizational structures and activities.
