Murphy Jr. traces militant movements associated with Islam from the early Arab conquests to the terrorist attacks of September 2001. The book distinguishes a global religion from the extremist ideologies that claim its authority, while examining historical conflicts, political grievances and organisations such as al-Qaeda. Written in the immediate aftermath of the attacks on the United States, it reflects the debates and language of that period. Readers are offered a broad, polemical survey of how religious ideas have been mobilised for warfare and political violence.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48696482824404,"sku":"TVJ-031860","price":9.2,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-031860-1.jpg?v=1789693837","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/sword-of-islam-by-john-f-murphy-jr","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
