Inside Jihad:

Understanding and Confronting

Radical Islam

by CI Centre Professor Dr. Tawfik Hamid

More than twenty years ago, Tawfik Hamid was recruited by Jamaa Islamiya--an Islamic terrorist group led by Dr. Ayman Al-Zawahiri, currently the second-in-command of Al-Qaeda. After adopting the ideology of violent jihad for a period of time, Dr. Hamid recognized the threat of radical Islam and rejected Islamist distortions of the religion. He then pursued a path of reformation within Islam, writing new interpretations of key religious texts and sharing his message in mosques.

With Inside Jihad, Hamid reveals his insights about Islamic terrorism. As a medical doctor and psychologist, he helps readers understand the jihadist mind by leading them through his personal story. He explains the meaning of "jihad" and the role that sex, petrodollars, and the hijab play in the proliferation of radical Islam.

Hamid also highlights the myths and misconceptions that saturate modern discussions of Islamic terrorism. He explains the mistakes Westerners have made in confronting Islamism and suggests strategies for defeating it. Critically, Hamid shares his plan for Islamic reformation--a key component in solving the problem of radical Islam.

For more information about Dr. Hamid, see his biography on our website.

CI Centre Exclusive

Counterintelligence Timeline Poster

This is it―the most useful, comprehensive and stunning counterintelligence timeline the CI Centre has ever made. And it's the most POWERFUL counterintelligence awareness tool you could give your higher-ups. No one can deny the reality of espionage against the United States and the need to invest in CI/Security when they see this 24"x36" chart of every known spy from 1900 to August 2006--when they began spying, where they worked, who they spied for and when they were caught.

A timeline no CI or security professional should be without. If you need to convince people that espionage really happens and is a threat to our national security, just show or give them this poster and they are sure to be convinced. Does your executive not have enough time to listen to your full awareness briefings? Drop this modern, attractive, professional poster on his/her desk and if he/she is smart, they will begin focusing more attention and money on counterintelligence and security.

This is our fifth update of a classic we have been producing since 1996. This time we completely retooled the design and presentation of information to make it more comprehensive and easier to understand as well as see the big picture. Each column on the chart shows a decade of events and spies, all broken down by year.

• The first section has CI-related events in the FBI.

• The second section has CI-related events in the CIA.

• The third section has CI-related events in Congress (like hearings/laws, etc).

• The fourth section is the largest in each decade and shows counterintelligence events and ALL spies publicly known. You'll quickly see what year they began spying, where they worked, who they spied for and what year they were arrested. You'll realize how much spying against the United States has taken place and as you can see from the above photo, unfortunately no decade is immune from people deciding to spy against us. Understanding this reality encourages greater management and employee buy-in to the necessity of counterintelligence and security, awareness, reporting and good OPSEC.

• The fifth section shows key world events to help put the CI events in context.

• Also on this poster: a complete listing of all the spies named in VENONA, the flags of all the countries who had a spy convicted in US court (far more than USSR/Russia and China), and powerful quotes from counterintelligence professionals about the reality of spying.
