The Terrorists of Iraq ─ Inside the Strategy and Tactics of the Iraq Insurgency 2003-2014

"Malcolm Nance, a long-time veteran of the US intelligence community's counterterrorism effort, revisits his first edition of "The Terrorists of Iraq" in wake of the most recent turmoil in the country. This new edition contains valuable insight to many of the terrorist groups, including ISIS, effecting the region today. It will continue to draw on the historical analyses, examinations of organizations/weapons/strategy & tactics, and policy recommendations included in the first edition--but, will add valuable lessons learned from the most recent crisis and the changes that have occurred in the last 6 years since the first edition's publication"--
