The United States of America: Friend or Foe to the Muslim World?

Anwaar Hussain's The United Vegetative States of America analyzes America’s role in the rise of terrorism…and the fall of freedom.

Al Ain, United Arab Emirates (PRWEB) October 7, 2006 -- Anwaar Hussain’s new book, The United Vegetative States of America is a gripping account of the role played by American neo-conservatism in the fomenting of world-wide terrorism and anti-Muslim sentiment.

Hussain, a former officer in the Pakistan Air Force, delivers a powerful analysis of how American neo-conservatism -- specifically, the Bush administration -- has capitalized on the threat of terrorist attacks to justify international aggression and violence.

The author delivers a lucid and unsettling overview of recent history as it pertains to the Soviet-led invasion of Afghanistan and the ensuing era of brutal oppression. Hussain points out how quickly the United States recognized the opportunity to defeat “The Evil Empire” and turned to Pakistan as its strongest ally. With American support, a highly organized and efficient Islamic opposition, Jihad, was cultivated. The U.S. and oil-rich countries poured money into the region. In time, the Soviet Union fell. With that mission accomplished, the U.S. turned its back on Pakistan and went home, abandoning a passionate army comprised of hundreds of thousands of young Muslims, many of whom traveled around the world to stoke the fires of Islamic fundamentalism.

While Hussain is openly disapproving of the Americans for their hypocritical attitudes and actions, he does not euphemize the state of the Muslim world or the behaviors of its citizens. In fact, Hussain proclaims that the Muslim world is in its most pathetic state yet, since its inception on the world map. Long gone are the powerful glories and legacies which initially spurred on the Muslim followers, replaced by a people wrangling over the trivialities of religion, such as the length of their beards, the further veiling of their women folk, and the procedural dissimilarities of their daily prayers.        

In this powerful book, the author uses Pakistan as a model of the Muslim world. While Pakistan holds immense potential as the only Muslim nuclear power and the world’s sixth most populated country, rich with untapped natural resources and an incredibly strategic location, it has also become entangled and disoriented with internal conflicts. Wielding tremendous influence over the Muslim world, the conditions in Pakistan are, by and large, symptomatic of those prevalent in the larger Muslim body. He asks: Will the Muslim world rise to the challenge and become a respected international leader, or will it fall on its sword and be victimized by self-serving countries and regimes? If it is to be the former, not only does the Muslim world need to examine itself, U.S. policy, too, must change.
