In their own words

There is no substitute for getting to know our enemy in his own words, a task made considerably easier by the publication of The Al Qaeda Reader earlier this month. Introduced by Victor Davis Hanson, edited by Raymond Ibrahim, the volume collects previously available declarations as well as heretofore untranslated items identified by Ibrahim in his work at the Library of Congress. Bruce Thornton’s provocative review is posted at VDH’s Private Papers.
