Sample Book Insights:
#1 When he was assigned to the prison, Dr. Sabha was warned about the dangerous inmates. The leader of the sect was a religious scholar named Maqdisi, who was capable of infecting and twisting minds like a Muslim Rasputin.
#2 The doctor began seeing patients, and learned that the groupâs core consisted of about two dozen men who had been members of radical Islamic sects that sprang up in Jordan in the early 1990s. Their individual histories were unimpressive.
#3 The leaders of the Zarqa Group, as they were called, were arrested before they could carry out their first operation. The other groupsâ targets consisted of small-time symbols of Western corruption. They shared a common creed, an austere brand of Islam invented by Maqdisi.
#4 Maqdisiâs ideas began to solidify, and he began to call for the killing of Arab leaders who were allegedly apostates, meaning they were not following Islam properly. He would often compliment Zarqawi on his toughness, and the two would become close.
