The Muslim Brotherhood and Iran vs. the West: Sunni and Shiite Criticisms of Western Values (Illustrated) By Charles River Editors Kindle Edition The Muslim Brotherhood and Iran vs. the West: Sunni and Shiite Criticisms of Western Values (Illustrated) Since 9/11, the West has been painfully aware of the violent and antagonistic nature of opposition to Western values by groups like al Qaeda. The West has also been unable to reach agreements or establish friendly relations with the Islamic Republic of Iran. Yet few Westerners understand what motivates men like Osama bin Laden to oppose and attack the West, or how to fix relations with the Muslim world (if they even think it possible). This book uncovers the answers by investigating the writings and teachings of Sayyid Qutb, the Sunni ideological leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, and Ayatollah Khomeini, the original Supreme Leader of the Shiite Islamic Republic of Iran. These two men continue to be the driving force behind powerful movements in the Middle East today. Qutbs teachings inspire the Muslim Brotherhood and its offshoots, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, as well as al Qaeda leaders like Ayman al Zawahiri. Meanwhile, Khomeinis works remain influential for Iran and Shiite militias across the region. Discover how these men interpreted Islam, what they thought and wrote about the West, and what if anything the West can do in response to their criticisms. The Muslim Brotherhood, Iran, Islam and the West is specially formatted with a Table of Contents and images of Qutb, Khomeini, and other important figures.
