Summary How long have the United States and their Saudi allies been sponsoring and financing the radical Islamists, and why doesn't anyone stop them? Labévière uncovers the money-laundering, the organized crime and the interlocking world of business and politics that fuel the terrorists. The central nerve of Islamism, he states, is not religion - it is money.
