Book Description
THE NOVEL THAT EXAMINES THE CULTURE OF VIOLENCE Odigoma grapples with disturbing frequency, the problems of the semiotics of violence. She decides to stoke the epistemic fire in quest of the tyrannies inherent in settling score with fellow human beings. Can there be any relationship between violence and violation? What is meant by the justification of violence? What is the value of terror in a civilized community? Who is a terrorist? While she continues to brood over these posers, something drops into her mind: she needs to make a move; and that move requires her going to the enclave of Oketiiriwoye, her mysterious mentor, with regard to sipping at sassy wine. Odigoma follows the path of dialogue to engage her mentor in the role of international community in spreading and combating terrorism. Why has USA derailed from the ideology of her Founding Fathers and Mothers to overreaching herself as well as helping in spawning and spreading terror across the globe? Odigoma reflects on the golden jubilee of the [Gi]ant of Africa, a Land of Waste (LOW). She then offers 50 gift items: the reasons for persistent institutional failures in the ship navigated by leaders without ladders and limbs. She also looks into the gory game of the BH terrorist group, conducting with impunity the rape of a rickety republic. * * * * * One Mans Terrorists Another Mans Freedom Fighter is an engaging novel of briny ideas, which is able to weave into it the meanings of violence, its variant, terrorism, and the debilitating impact on the society as well as the double standard game tactics played by the world powers.

His dramatic story, and those of others worldwide who are suffering persecution, are told in shocking, yet sensitive detail.

Escape from Saddam
Author: Lewis Alsamari
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307409694
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
At the age of seventeen, Lewis Alsamari was conscripted into Saddam Hussein’s army. The training was brutal, with discipline enforced by regular beatings, and desertion punishable by mutilation or imprisonment. Somehow Lewis made it through and, thanks in part to his fluent English, was soon offered a post in Iraqi military intelligence. The job would have made him powerful, comfortably wealthy . . . and a cog in Saddam Hussein’s massive machine of terror. Unable to accept becoming a member of Saddam’s secret police, yet knowing that turning down this “honor” would be considered treasonous, Lewis made plans to flee Iraq. His escape was fraught with peril–he was shot, detained at borders, even pursued by hungry wolves across the desert–but the teenager made his way to Jordan, then Malaysia, and finally to England, where he was granted political asylum. Lewis began building a life for himself, even falling in love and getting married. But he was haunted by thoughts of the loved ones he left behind in Iraq, his uncle’s words echoing in his ears: we are sending you to freedom so that one day you may rescue us from this place. One day, shocking news arrived: because of his escape, Lewis’s family–including his mother and sister–had been interrogated, beaten, and thrown into prison. Frantic with guilt and worry, Lewis was forced to steal the thousands of dollars he needed to buy their release and smuggle them out of Iraq. Then, accompanied by his wife, he embarked on a desperate journey in hope of bringing his family to freedom. Escape from Saddam is a powerful nonfiction thriller that, even as it plunges the reader into a netherworld of crooked border police, military checkpoints, counterfeiters, and smugglers, provides a fascinating window into a totalitarian regime. It is also a remarkably inspirational story of a resourceful young man who refused to accept his fate . . . and then risked everything he’d achieved to save his family.
