In this disturbing and insightful book, Amir Mir has pieced together a fascinating mosaic of information about jehadi personalities in Pakistan. In the Process he expose the continuting connection between the Pakistani military establishment, particularlythe ISI and the different militant groups operating from that country.
The True Face Of Jehadi makes it clear that the root of the problem is the Pakistani leadership's ambivalence vis-à-vis the jehadi violence as instruments of state policy.
