Bowyer Bell's story begins a century ago in Egypt, the cradle of Moslem discontent. Held hostage by foreign imperialists and local despots for generations, the country limped toward modernity after World War I, but by the time of the corrupt King Farouk in the 1940s, organizations such as the Moslem Brothers were actively opposing secularization. Allah was their answer to all the vexing questions of the modern world. Assassination was the preferred means for effecting social change. For the next fifty years, clerics, sheikhs and imams obsessed with the luminosity of absolute spiritual truth played an increasingly important role in Egyptian life. And the most zealous of these lethal idealists found in the idea of righteous murder~holy war~an appealing means of creating a perfect Islamic society free from the contaminating influence of the West. Willing to deploy terror to make their vision a reality, they murdered British soldiers and diplomats and local politicians. They tried to assassinate the "new pharoah" Gamal Nasser and succeeded in killing his successor, Anwar Sadat. When their attempt to build heaven on earth in Egypt was blocked by the military power of the government, they turned toward the rest of the Islamic world, where their message incubated in the war against the infidels in Afghanistan~found a receptive audience . . In describing this genealogy of terror, Bell focuses on Sheikh Omar Abdel Rahman, a blind preacher whose uncompromising message of redemption through jihad, first heard in the Egyptian village of Fedemin, made him both a national icon and an enemy of the state. In the early 1990s Rahman came to America, homeland of "the Great Satan;' and began to preach in shabby walkups and storefronts throughout the Moslem community. In the Islamist ferment of Egypt and Afghanistan, the sheikh had been acquainted with Dr. Ayman al~Zawahiri, founder of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, who became the personal physician and co~conspirator of Osama bin Laden. Now in the Islamist ferment of America, Rahman conspired with Ramzi Yousef, who designed the device used in the first World Trade Center bombing in 1993 and was later arrested in the Philippines after plotting to kill the Pope and conceiving a plan to blow up twelve American commercial jetliners in a one~day terrorist spectacular. Bell shows how that aborted plot was a first draft for 9/11 and how the embers of the first World Trade Center bombing finally flared up in a much greater conflagration on a calm September morning eight years later. Murders on the Nile takes us into a murky underworld of Egyptian exiles, Palestinian and Iranian militants, and Arabs waging jihad in Afghanistan~all of them joined together by a dream of violence, freedom and vengeance. By the beginning of the twenty~first century, these Islamist zealots had filled their ranks with holy men a.…
