Product Description
Funding Evil: How Terrorism is Financed—and How to Stop It, by terrorism expert Rachel Ehrenfeld Ph.D., uncovers the clandestine and sinister ways that Islamic terrorist groups finance their global network. From innocent-looking American businesses that serve as fronts for terrorism to joint efforts with established groups in organized crime, terrorists have grown increasingly savvy in ways to bolster their financial power. Dr. Ehrenfeld’s investigation also details how these undetected billions are spent to methodically bring about chaos and destabilization in American society. Funding Evil shows how money fuels terrorism and offers realistic and provocative strategies for winning the war on terror.

1 out of 5 starsFunding Evil?, 2008-08-21
A waste of space, with out of date (for 2002) information concerning the IRA who by 2002 had decommissioned, also bas info on African diamond trade, plus a heavy Zionist bias. Not worth the money, and after the Turner Diaries the worst book that I have ever purchased from the U.S. NOT RECOMMENDED buy something else. Rated zero stars. "Ghostrider" [I have been to Afghanistan, most of the Arab world :Iran,Iraq,Egypt, Libya, Saudi, Kuwait; South and Central America, mainly the no-tourist places, as well as "Red" China (c 1976) and a few "nasty" places in Africa, (in no special order) Senegal, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Mozambique, Nigeria, and Angola.

5 out of 5 starsKnow what fuels the World Wide Jihad, 2008-08-13
This book is a must read for those who wish to know how the Islamists are financing their Hard and Soft Jihad within all western nations. This book should be made obligatory reading in all Western Universities and Government Departments.

Dr. Ehrenfeld has gone out on a limb to report these insidious activities that occur on a daily basis within ALL our societies, by an ideology whose main goal is to subjugate and conquer our free and democatic nations.

I recommend this book to those who wish to know how the enemy, that we are now being forced to confront, not only in our own backyards but globally, operates.

5 out of 5 starsTruth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, 2008-01-11
If a Saudi royal is spending millions on muzzling the author of this book, you better believe it has some good stuff inside! This is a must-read for any non-Muslim, and it is important to purchase this book to support the brave, idealistic, sacrificing author, who is in the same righteous league as other heroes like Robert Spencer, Andrew Bostom, Ibn Warraq, Ali Sina, Walid Shoebat, Brigitte Gabriel, Bat Ye'or, and a few others. Buy a copy for yourself. If you have a relative or friend who works in any capacity for DHS, buy him or her a copy, too. This is especially important because of infiltration of Muslims into our government (read also Infiltration by Paul Sperry), as evidenced by the recent termination of Stephen Coughlin, a key Pentagon specialist on Islamic law and jihad, as a result of Muslim pressure by Hesham Islam and the terrorist front groups CAIR and ISNA.

5 out of 5 starsEssential reading, 2007-10-10
Funding Evil will arm you with enough knowledge to see the outlines of the jihad strategy to spread sharia and Dar al Islam around the world. It is dense with enough detail to make it a vital reference, yet engaging and readable for mainstream audiences. It ought to be available in every library in America and the West.

Scanning the book, it's not hard to see why libel tourists such as Khalid bin Mafouz want it squashed and sue to keep it out of your hands. He appears on page 22 accused of dropping tens of millions of dollars directly into terrorist bank accounts. He appears on page 39 dropping funds into the bank accounts of "charities" that are in turn known supporters of Hamas and al Qaeda. His family turns up throughout the book funding various causes that just happen to funnel money to terrorist groups. The book certainly either defames or defines his character. Given the fact that other authors have researched bin Mafouz's finances and found similar financial connections and transactions, it's more likely the latter. So he sues.

Dr. Ehrenfeld's fight against libel tourism will set free speech precedent for decades to come. If she succeeds, courts outside the US will not be able to punish authors whose books are published in the US but sold internationally via Amazon and other online outlets. If her fight fails, then Khalid bin Mafouz will use his billions to come after other American authors who expose how terrorism is financed and fueled by wealthy Saudis and others who appear to be trying to buy their way into paradise by funding worldwide homicide bombing. And he'll come after US reporters, columnists and bloggers too. Her fight is our fight and your fight too.

Funding Evil is essential reading. With a foreword by former DCI James Woolsey and a critique of the 9-11 Commission report as well as details on terror financing and support for the legal jihad that reach right into the Saudi royal family, Funding Evil is indeed a book that the Saudis don't want you to read.

5 out of 5 starsCity Magazine piece that discusses this book, 2007-10-10
An article entitled, "A SLAAP Against Freedom" in the current (Autumn 2007) issue of City Journal talks about the nonsense this book's author went through regarding this book in the goofy U.K. legal system. Evidently, freedom of speech is NOT a right guaranteed in the U.K. Fortunately, U.S. courts are handling this case as a First Amendment issue. (BTW, Amazon's U.K. operation doesn't stock this book ... or, at the very least, isn't stocking the book at this moment.)

The article also notes how Cambridge University Press succumbed to a frivolous libel suit of a similar nature. A sad day for CUP (one of my favorite publishers). Although I'm sure the author in question can find another publisher, a CUP imprint will be tough to match.

Let's hope that U.S. courts remain above frivolous libel suits and protect freedom of speech.

God Bless America!!
