With God on Our Side: Politics and Theology of the War on Terrorism

US Books > Nonfiction > Current Events > Terrorism

Drawing upon the expertise of the foremost Christian and Muslim scholars and political analysts, this book discusses the theological and political aspects of the war on terrorism from both Muslim and Christian perspectives and critiques the neoconservative movement and its alliance with the evangelical Christian Right. This new edition examines the political consequences of this renewed evangelism in relation to Israel, the current manifestations of Muslim extremism, and its impact on peace in the Middle East. The treatise contains six essays from the previous edition, and is brought up to date with 17 new essays, and a new foreword and introduction.
