    • Abstract:
      Contends that the initial belief that the Muslim nation of Afghanistan would recruit more enraged volunteers for Osama Bin Laden in response to the United States-led war on terrorism has been proven wrong. The lack of recruits in Afghanistan; Why the logic of victory often eludes the secular West; War in Afghanistan as a turning point for Islamic fundamentalism; Religious significance of success for fundamentalists; View that the secular West fails to understand that ascendancy, not grievance, is the issue in fighting religious fanaticism.
