Publisher Description

Osama bin Laden called Muhammad "a Prophet of Conquest." Pakistan's Universal Sunnah Foundation brags that under Muhammad's battlefield leadership, "Islam spread an average of 317 square miles per day."Right now ISIS, al Qaeda, Boko Haram, and the Supreme Leader of Iran know that Islam toppled two of the biggest superpowers in history—Rome and Persia—then took over two-thirds of the inhabited world. Militant Muslims believe that Islam is on the brink of doing it again. The Muhammad Code: How a Desert Prophet Brought You ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram lays bare the origins of this profoundly dangerous belief.Many contemporary thinkers excuse Islamic violence as a legitimate reaction to Western imperialism. They blame America's wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the establishment of Israel in 1948. But Jihad was invented in 624 AD by the only prophet ever to call himself "The Prophet of War." And that prophet was not responding to "legitimate grievances," but an ambition for world conquest.

Flap

You Are the Bulls Eye Dabiq--the magazine of ISIS, the Islamic State--mentions "dirty bombs in Manhattan." AP reports that, "An al-Qaida leader has said 4 million Americans will have to be killed 'as a prerequisite to any Islamic victory.'" Iran says it knows the 29 key weak points it can attack to wipe out "Anglo-Saxon civilization." It's openly perfecting nuclear-ready missiles that will be capable of reaching Washington and New York as early as 2020. Pakistan has 130 "Islamic bombs," 130 nuclear warheads. It also has three long-range stealth submarines that could be equipped with nuclear missiles on a minute's notice, ocean-going submarines that could wipe out up to sixteen American cities. Our navy has enormous difficulty detecting these subs. And Pakistan is in danger of being taken over by its Muslim extremists. Meanwhile Boko Haram's leader Abubakar Shekau warns that he will kill you and sell your daughters as sex slaves in the marketplace. He's already done that with thousands of girls in Nigeria. ISIS explains that you are an enemy of Allah if you believe in democracy, freedom, rule of law, national independence, scientific thinking, secularism, the Constitution, gay rights, or human rights. And ISIS brags that its goal is "terrorizing, massacring, and humiliating the enemies of Allah." That means you. How will that "terror, massacre, and humiliation" against you be achieved? How does the life of Muhammad determine the answer? The Muhammad Code is the story of how a desert prophet set us up for the "death cults" of ISIS, al Qaeda, and Boko Haram. It's the story of the only founder of a major religion ever to command 65 military campaigns and personally lead 27 of them. And the first to conquer 317 square miles of territory a day. It's the story of how that prophet set up your ancestors and mine for over 1,300 years of attack and enslavement, the story of how he laid the groundwork for the destruction of superpowers far more potent than the United States, and the story of how he started the longest-running world war in history. The Muhammad Code is the story of how that prophet demands that his never-ending war be turned against you and me.
