Aaron Mannes is a former director of research of the Middle East Media Research Institute (1998-2001). He writes, speaks, and briefs extensively on the Middle East, U.S. national security, and terrorism.

doors for the establishment of relationships between terrorist
groups with competing and contradictory ideologies

This outstanding guide to terrorist organizations is both an
excellent textbook for students of the Middle East and a great
reference for experts in policy, research, or programs on Middle
Eastern terrorism. While there have been many books written on
Middle Eastern terrorism and its actors, Aaron Mannes's work is by
far the best. It is a compact, comprehensive guide on the
subject.

A straightforward profile of twenty modern-day terrorist
organizations operating in the Middle East and the regional groups
affiliated with them. Including detailed descriptions of each
group's ideology and objectives, history, leadership, organization,
external relations, financial support networks, target and tactics,
and much more, Profiles in Terror is filled with crucial
information for anyone researching modern history, crucially
interested in American security, or striving to better understand
the darker side of world politics. Highly recommended.

One of the strengths ofProfiles in Terror is the comprehensiveness
of the coverage of these groups in a single compendium in terms of

areas of operation, targets and tactics, and chronology of their
activities.

*Jewish Book World*
This volume is a commendable and timely publication. It provides an
impressive source of information that is both thorough and
wide-ranging on the rapidly proliferating phenomenon of
international terrorism and the organizations that perpetrate it.
As a reference guide, it has been thoughtfully compiled making it a
valuable tool for professional specialists as well as interesting
reading for the general public, so many of whom have had their
lives touched by the scourge of global terror.
