The Global War on Terrorism: A Religious War?

Strategic Studies Institute, U.S. Army War College.
Available online.   Printed copy to be added to the library collection.
"The United States has been actively engaged in prosecuting the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) since September 2001... The author reviews the pertinent cultural history and background of Islam and then posits three root causes of this conflict: the lack of wealth-sharing in Islamic countries, resentment of Western exploitation of Islamic countries, and a U.S. credibility gap within the Islamic community."
