Yet this is what Mustafa Hamid, aka Abu Walid al-Masri, and Leah Farrall have achieved with the publication of their ground-breaking work. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe result of thousands of hours of discussions over several years, \u003cem\u003eThe Arabs at War in Afghanistan\u003c\/em\u003e offers significant new insights into the history of many of today's militant Salafi groups and movements. By revealing the real origins of the Taliban and al-Qaeda and the jostling among the various jihadi groups, this account not only challenges conventional wisdom, but also raises uncomfortable questions as to how events from this important period have been so badly misconstrued.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Mustafa Hamid, Leah Farrall\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1849044201\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781849044202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Hurst \u0026amp; Co.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.70h x 5.80w x 1.10d","brand":"Mustafa Hamid","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44130643378431,"sku":"9781849044202","price":26.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6dea240a-54ef-42dd-ac92-cf1247336059.jpg?v=1687470508","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-arabs-at-war-in-mustafa-hamid-9781849044202","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
