In the Name of God and Religion

This book is a collection of articles covering the senseless acts of terrorism and other acts of violence that were carried out (and are still being carried out) in the name of religion over past few years. Terrorists and acts of terrorism are not new phenomena in the world, but their recurrence in last few years, mostly in the name of one religion, has created great political and social turmoil not only in the countries where these occur but the world at large.

The articles are a narrative of the damages caused by religious militancy as they happened over the last few years. Most articles are based on events at the time when some of the narratives happened, but the reactions the events caused in the affected countries and worldwide still reverberate in peoples mind. Many political backlashes that resulted from these events are still evolving and will have more consequences in politics and societies all over the world.
