The King Fahad National Library in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has selected Face to Face with ISIS, authored by Lebanese journalist and researcher Rola Al Khatib, as its “Book of the Day”—a recognition highlighting works that contribute to knowledge and public awareness on issues of strategic importance.
The book draws on Al Khatib’s years of firsthand field reporting from the frontlines of the war against ISIS in Iraq and Syria, combined with extensive academic research examining the international campaign against the terrorist organization.
One of the book’s central arguments is that military action, while necessary, is not sufficient on its own to defeat terrorism. Rather, it should serve as the first step in a broader strategy that must be followed by intellectual, educational, social, economic, and security measures aimed at addressing the root causes of extremism and preventing its resurgence.
The selection by King Fahad National Library reflects the growing recognition of research that bridges field experience and academic analysis, contributing to a deeper understanding of terrorism and more comprehensive approaches to countering violent extremism.
