AMERICA’S SECRET JIHAD: THE HIDDEN HISTORY OF RELIGIOUS TERRORISM IN THE UNITED STATES
Book ID/图书代码: 03371015B81643
English Summary/英文概要: The conventional narrative concerning religious terrorism inside the United States says that the first salvo occurred in 1993, with the first attack on the World Trade Center in New York City. This narrative has motivated more than a decade of wars, and re-prioritized America’s domestic security and law enforcement agenda. But the conventional narrative is wrong. A different group of jihadists exists within US borders. This group has a long but hidden history, is outside the purview of public officials and has an agenda as apocalyptic as anything Al Qaeda has to offer. Radical sects of Christianity have inspired some of the most grotesque acts of violence in American history: the 1963 Birmingham Church bombing that killed four young girls; the "Mississippi Burning" murders of three civil rights workers in 1964; the assassination of Martin Luther King, Jr. in 1968, the Atlanta Child Murders in the late 1970s; and the Oklahoma City Bombing in 1995.America’s Secret Jihad uses these crimes to tell a story that has not been told before.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 传统叙事记录美国国内的宗教恐怖主义始于1993年针对纽约世贸中心的袭击。这次袭击是十多年战争的发端,也重新定位了美国的国内安全及执法议程。但这个传统叙事是错误的。在美国境内存在着另一群圣战分子。这个团体的历史悠长而隐秘,存在于政府官员的视线范围之外,其计划和基地组织的一样具有毁灭性。基督教教派的激进分子曾经发起过美国历史上最暴力的行动:1963年伯明翰教堂爆炸事件,炸死了四名少女们;1964年“密西西比大火”谋杀了三位民权斗士;1968年马丁•路德•金遇刺;1970年代后期亚特兰大儿童谋杀案;1995年俄克拉荷马城爆炸案等。本书则利用三段罪案讲述了一个不为人知晓的故事。(LYR)
