The opening as it read in 2020
Militant Islam Reaches America is a book written by historian Daniel Pipes , published in 2002. It focuses on Islamic fundamentalism and Islamism , reflecting Pipes' view that, as he said in 1995, "Unnoticed by most Westerners, war has been unilaterally declared on Europe and the United States ." The book is a collection of Pipes' essays, published in the decade that ended in 2001. In Militant Islam Pipes contradicts the consensus view of scholars and journalists including Judith Miller , Fouad Ajami , Olivier Roy who argued in the wake of the September 11 attacks that militant Islam of the type represented by Al Qaeda had peaked and was fading into insignificance; Pipes asserted that Islamism had been on the ascendant for a full quarter-century, and was on the ascent.
