Have any of you read the "The Al-Qaeda Reader" by Raymond Ibrahim?

Question

It is a collection of documents translated into English by Ibrahim, who is a researcher in the Near East Division of the Library of Congress. Most of these documents have not been widely read in the West, mainly because they are intended for muslims in the middle east. Interestingly, these documnets contain few references to Zionism, Bush's "Crusade," malnourished Iraqi children - all of those 'reasons' AL-Qaeda lists in its messages to the West on why they are carrying out Jihad

Instead, they were filled with countless Koranic verses, hadiths (traditions attributed to the Prophet Muhammad), and the consensus and verdicts of Islam's most authoritative voices.

A must read.

Answer 1

No, it does not matter to me what it says. The Author could pick and choose what he choose to include in the book, in order to advance his agenda.
