The Muslims Are Coming! : Islamophobia, Extremism, and the Domestic War on Terror Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

The new front in the War on Terror is the "homegrown enemy," domestic terrorists who have become the focus of sprawling counterterrorism structures of policing and surveillance in the United States and across Europe.

Domestic surveillance has mushroomed - at least 100,000 Muslims in America have been secretly under scrutiny.

British police compiled a secret suspect list of more than 8,000 al-Qaeda "sympathizers," and in another operation included almost 300 children fifteen and under among the potential extremists investigated.

MI5 doubled in size in just five years. Based on several years of research and reportage, in locations as disperate as Texas, New York and Yorkshire, and written in engrossing, precise prose, this is the first comprehensive critique of counterradicalization strategies.

The new policy and policing campaigns have been backed by an industry of freshly minted experts and liberal commentators.

The Muslims Are Coming! looks at the way these debates have been transformed by the embrace of a narrowly configured and ill-conceived antiextremism.
