Book Capture Or Kill

  • Author : Nick Fielding
  • Publisher : Skyhorse Publishing Inc.
  • Release : 2012
  • ISBN : 161145400X
  • Pages : 313 pages

Download or read book Capture Or Kill written by Nick Fielding and published by Skyhorse Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2012 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and Ramzi Binalshibh, two of bin Laden’s key lieutenants: the masterminds behind the attacks of September 11. Based on the only interview these masterminds of terror ever gave to the media as well as extensive follow-up research, Capture or Kill may be the closest we will get to the full inside story of the plot. While Mohammed and Binalshibh were among the world’s most wanted men and hiding in a safe house in Pakistan, they summoned star al-Jazeera TV reporter Yosri Fouda for a one-of-a-kind exclusive. Fouda knew he might well be walking into a trap, as Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl had done only months before. He took the risk, and, for forty-eight hours, Fouda listened as Mohammed, head of al-Qaeda’s military committee, and Binalshibh, the link between Mohammed Atta and the senior al-Qaeda leadership, proudly claimed responsibility for the attacks on New York and the Pentagon—the first time al-Qaeda took direct responsibility—and detailed for the first time exactly how the plot was conceived and executed. The authors, uniquely positioned because of their prior unprecedented access and research, deliver a thrilling account of what has happened since. What has changed in the intervening years to this insidious global network? How does Osama bin Laden’s capture and death affect its continuing operation? This is a must-read for anyone who wants to know not only the full truth behind September 11, but also the implications of recent events for the future of global security.

Book Turkey  Islam  Nationalism  and Modernity

Download or read book Turkey Islam Nationalism and Modernity written by Carter V. Findley and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book Description: Publication Date: August 30, 2011. "Turkey, Islam, Nationalism, and Modernity" reveals the historical dynamics propelling two centuries of Ottoman and Turkish history. As mounting threats to imperial survival necessitated dynamic responses, ethnolinguistic and religious identities inspired alternative strategies for engaging with modernity. A radical, secularizing current of change competed with a conservative, Islamically committed current. Crises sharpened the differentiation of the two streams, forcing choices between them. The radical current began with the formation of reformist governmental elites and expanded with the advent of 'print capitalism', symbolized by the privately owned, Ottoman-language newspapers. The radicals engineered the 1908 Young Turk revolution, ruled empire and republic until 1950, made secularism a lasting 'belief system', and still retain powerful positions. The conservative current gained impetus from three history-making Islamic renewal movements, those of Mevlana Halid, Said Nursi, and Fethullah Gulen. Powerful under the empire, Islamic conservatives did not regain control of government until the 1980s. By then they, too, had their own influential media. Findley's reassessment of political, economic, social and cultural history reveals the dialectical interaction between radical and conservative currents of change, which alternately clashed and converged to shape late Ottoman and republican Turkish history.

Book Masterminds of Terror

Download or read book Masterminds of Terror written by Yusrī Fawdah and published by Arcade Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A One-of-a-Kind Expose of the September 11 Terrorist Plot That Changed Our Lives and Our World Irrevocably. When star Al-Jazeera TV reporter Yosri Fouda received an anonymous call summoning him to a secret interview in Pakistan with al-Qaeda, he knew he could be walking into a deadly trap, as Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl had done only months before. But he took the risk, and hit pay dirt. For 48 hours, Fouda listened as two of the world's most wanted men, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, head of al-Qaeda's military committee, and Ramzi Binalshibh, the link between Mohammed Atta and the senior al-Qaeda leadership, proudly claimed responsibility for the 9/11 attacks on New York and the Pentagon -- the first time al-Qaeda took direct responsibility. During the course of the in-depth interview, they detailed exactly how, over a two-year period, the plot was conceived, planned, and executed. Among their many revelations: The intended target of United Airlines Flight 93. The code names used by the hijackers. Documents and souvenirs from Atta's Hamburg apartment. Actual e-mail communications between Atta and Binalshibh. The role both chief conspirators played in the slaying of Daniel Pearl. Mohammed's connections to the first World Trade Center attack. How Mohammed and Binalshibh built al-Qaeda's Far East network. Based on that interview and hours of follow-up investigation, Masterminds of Terror also contains dramatic accounts of the seizure of both Binalshibh and Mohammed and analyzes al-Qaeda's attempts to justify its actions on what it calls "Holy Tuesday." With the recent headline-grabbing capture of Khalid Shaikh Mohammed, both masterminds are now being held by the U.S. government in secret locations. Here is the closest we may get to the full inside story of the plot, together with the most up-to-date and comprehensive account yet of the philosophy and actions of al-Qaeda Book jacket.

Book Migration in the Southern Balkans

Download or read book Migration in the Southern Balkans written by Hans Vermeulen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book collects ten essays that look at intra-regional migration in the Southern Balkans from the late Ottoman period to the present. It examines forced as well as voluntary migrations and places these movements within their historical context, including ethnic cleansing, population exchanges, and demographic engineering in the service of nation-building as well as more recent labor migration due to globalization. Inside, readers will find the work of international experts that cuts across national and disciplinary lines. This cross-cultural, comparative approach fully captures the complexity of this highly fractured, yet interconnected, region. Coverage explores the role of population exchanges in the process of nation-building and irredentist policies in interwar Bulgaria, the story of Thracian refugees and their organizations in Bulgaria, the changing waves of migration from the Balkans to Turkey, Albanian immigrants in Greece, and the diminished importance of ethnic migration after the 1990s. In addition, the collection looks at such under-researched aspects of migration as memory, gender, and religion. The field of migration studies in the Southern Balkans is still fragmented along national and disciplinary lines. Moreover, the study of forced and voluntary migrations is often separate with few interconnections. The essays collected in this book bring these different traditions together. This complete portrait will help readers gain deep insight and better understanding into the diverse migration flows and intercultural exchanges that have occurred in the Southern Balkans in the last two centuries.

With a mother who can barely look at her without wincing, classmates who whisper behind her back, and a father whose violent crime rocked her small town, Aysel is ready to turn her potential energy into nothingness. There’s only one problem: she’s not sure she has the courage to do it alone. But once she discovers a website with a section called Suicide Partners, Aysel’s convinced she’s found her solution—Roman, a teenage boy who’s haunted by a family tragedy, is looking for a partner. Even though Aysel and Roman have nothing in common, they slowly start to fill in each other’s broken lives. But as their suicide pact becomes more concrete, Aysel begins to question whether she really wants to go through with it. Ultimately, she must choose between wanting to die or trying to convince Roman to live so they can discover the potential of their energy together.

Book The Selection of Ministers around the World

Download or read book The Selection of Ministers around the World written by Keith Dowding and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-08-13 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governing cabinets are composed of ministers who come and go even as governments march on. They work for the chief executive, the prime minister or the president, for their parties and for the constituent groups from which they come. They are chosen for their role and dismissed from it for all sorts of reasons that vary across time and country. This book examines the process of selection, shuffling and removal of ministers in national cabinets around the world. Drawing on original data over several decades, it offers a series of case studies of countries from around the world with differing institutional and cultural structures including presidential and semi-presidential systems, and parliamentary, unitary and federal systems, some of which have experienced periods under authoritarian regimes. Featuring 14 case studies on North and South America, Asia, Africa, Australia and New Zealand, this book complements the earlier volume The Selection of Ministers in Europe (Routledge, 2009). This volume will be an important reference for students and scholars of political science, government, executives, comparative politics and political parties.

Book Crisis and Rebellion in the Ottoman Empire

Download or read book Crisis and Rebellion in the Ottoman Empire written by Aysel Yildiz and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-01-30 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1807 the reformist Sultan Selim III was overthrown in a palace coup enacted by the elite special forces of the day-the Janissaries. The Ottomans were bankrupt and had been forced to make peace with Napoleon after Austerlitz, but it was Selim III's efforts to reform an empire that had suffered successive military defeats, and to reform along the lines of modern principles-with an end to the privileged 'feudal' position of many in elite Ottoman civil-military society-which sealed his fate. This book seeks to situate Turkey's reactionary revolutions of 1807 into a wider European context, that of the French Revolution and the outbreaks of revolutionary activity in the German states, Britain and the US. The Ottoman Empire was an interconnected and crucial part of this early-modern world, and therefore, Aysel Yildiz argues, must be analyzed in relation to its European rivals. Focusing on the uprising, and the socio-economic and political conditions which caused it, this book re-orientates Ottoman history towards Western Europe, and re-situates the late-Ottoman Empire as a key battle-ground of political ideas in the modern era.

Book New Normal Beyond The Pandemic  Rethinking Alienation From Local To Global   Pandemiyle Birlikte Yerelden K  resele Yabanc  la  may   Yeniden D      nmek

Download or read book New Normal Beyond The Pandemic Rethinking Alienation From Local To Global Pandemiyle Birlikte Yerelden K resele Yabanc la may Yeniden D nmek written by Zeynep Banu Dalaman and published by Transnational Press London. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Covid-19 crisis, with all the horrors it has caused, has offered humanity an opportunity to reflect on itself and evaluate its point, even if it is delayed. In a very short time, we found ourselves worried about whether we could reach the objects we needed, whether we would lose our jobs or keep our freedom. Alienation is described as withdrawing or separation of a person or a person's affections from an object or position of former attachment: alienation viewed as a sense of detachment from the values of one's society, family, and even from one's own feelings from the values of one's society and family (S. L. Halleck). Different forms of alienation, such as cultural alienation, professional alienation, and religious alienation, are among the current issues. It is obvious that we need to define different forms of alienation along with the pandemic. I believe this book will not be the first nor the last research book published on the Covid-19 pandemic. Our aim is to leave a resource on the subject for the next generation of researchers. I would like to thank everyone who contributed to the book and hope it will be beneficial for the academic community. Covid-19 krizi yaşattığı tüm dehşetle birlikte insanlığın kendi üzerinde düşünmek, gelmiş bulunduğu noktayı değerlendirmek için de, gecikmeli olsa bile bir imkan sunmuştur. Kendimizi çok kısa bir süre içerisinde ihtiyacımız olan nesnelere ulaşıp ulaşamayacağımız, işimizi kaybedip kaybetmeyeceğimiz ya da özgürlüklerimizi elimizde tutup tutamayacağımız hakkında kaygılanır bulduk. Kelime anlamı itibarı ile yabancılaşma bir şeyin veya kimsenin başka bir şeyden veya kimseden uzaklaşması, başka bir şeyle veya kimseyle olan fonksiyonel veya anlamsal paylaşımının sona ermesi durumunu ifade etmektedir (S.L.Halleck). Kültürel yabancılaşma, mesleki yabancılaşma, dinsel yabancılaşma gibi farklı yabancılaşma biçimleri de günümüzün aktüel konularındandır. Pandemi ile birlikte farklı yabancılaşmaları da tanımlamamız gerektiği aşikârdır. Bu kitabın amacı, yeni sürecin yarattığı yabancılaşmayla birlikte, melezleşme sürecini yeniden inşa etmek, küresel ve yerel arasındaki kültürel karşılaşmalara alternatif yaklaşımları anlamaya katkı sunmaktır.

Book Literacy Acquisition in School in the Context of Migration and Multilingualism

Download or read book Literacy Acquisition in School in the Context of Migration and Multilingualism written by Inken Sürig and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the outcomes of a multi-methodical investigation of the processes of literacy acquisition. The focus is on mono- and bilingual first- and seventh-graders in schools in socially underprivileged areas of two major cities in Turkey and Germany. By means of extensive analyses of lesson videos, linguistic tests, interviews and ethnographic research, social, cultural, linguistic, pedagogic and didactic differences on the international, national, local and individual level are aligned with the momentary problem of exercising a school lesson and acquiring literacy on a daily basis. The results contradict to some degree that cultural and linguistic differences actually make a huge difference in the organisation and process of literacy acquisition. With the interdisciplinary background of the book, it addresses academics concerned with migration sociology, migration linguistics, classroom research, and bilingual education. In a broader perspective, the book contributes to the pedagogically and politically significant question how social and cultural characteristics of specific groups are stereotyped and partly unjustly combined in order to reach symbolic solutions for actual problems.

Book excerpt: Longlisted for the 2019 National Book Award for Young People's Literature A Publishers Weekly Best Young Adult Book of 2019 The best Teen Zombie Werewolf Witchy Faerie fantasy murder mystery you've ever read—by debut author, Hal Schrieve. Genderqueer fourteen-year-old Z Chilworth has to adjust quickly to their new status as a zombie after waking from death from a car crash that killed their parents and sisters. Always a talented witch, Z now can barely perform magic and is rapidly decaying. Faced with rejection from their remaining family members and old friends, Z moves in with their mother's friend, Mrs. Dunnigan, and befriends Aysel, a loud would-be-goth classmate who is, like Z, a loner. As Z struggles to find a way to repair the broken magical seal holding their body together, Aysel fears that her classmates will discover her status as an unregistered werewolf. When a local psychiatrist is murdered by what seems to be werewolves, the town of Salem, Oregon, becomes even more hostile to "monsters," and Z and Aysel are driven together in an attempt to survive a place where most people wish that neither of them existed. Rarely has a first-time author created characters of such immediacy and power as Z, Aysel, Tommy (suspected fey) and Elaine (also a werewolf), or a world that parallels our own so clearly and disturbingly.
