Recent bomb blasts in India highlight the living legacy of jihad on the Indian subcontinent. News reports suggest that the group which took credit for the attack may have ties to the Muslim jihadist group, the Lashar-e-Tayyaba.
Dr. Andrew Bostom is an expert on the lethal threat implicit in militant Islam. Bostom says that jihad terrorism is most likely behind the killings, as the Indian subcontinent has been subjected to jihad attacks since the early 8th century.
“Throughout India’s history there have been three major waves of brutal jihad campaigns, including many acts of jihad terror. Over the course of five centuries these jihads have established a permanent Muslim domination within Hindu and Buddhist India, slaughtering, enslaving, and subduing Hindus, while completely eliminating the Buddhists,” Bostom says.
Bostom is an Associate Professor of Medicine. He has published numerous magazine and newspaper articles on Islam and has been a featured guest on WABC and WOR radio. He has recently published a major documentary history on jihad, both its theory, and actual practice, compiling for the first time in Western language an extensive history of jihad from the 7th century, through the present. The Legacy of Jihad: The Legacy of Jihad: The Islamic Holy War and the Fate of Non-Muslims is a collection of eyewitness accounts, scholarly Muslim theological treatises and historical surveys.
“Professor Bostom’s meticulous and cogent study is a challenge to the free world to seriously ponder the growing, lethal threat implicit in militant Islam.” — Professor Vahkn Dadrian, pre-eminent historian of the Armenian genocide and author of The History of the Armenian Genocide (1995, 2004)
