April 13, 2006. A Jerusalem Post headline reads: "Jericho man murdered over home sale." The 42 year-old father of eight was kidnapped, shot seven times, thrown into his car, and set on fire, because he had sold his Jerusalem apartment to Jews. Radical Islam has long desired to seize Jerusalem and make it off limits to Christian and Jewish believers. In this revealing book, Dore Gold, former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, reminds us that the war on terror is also a war on faith.

Using previously unpublished documents, Gold, the former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, exposes how the deeply ingrained hatred that has provoked the new terrorism has its roots in Saudi Arabia's dominant religious creed, a radical Islamic offshoot known as Wahhabism.

This piece by Glen David Gold traces the history of a murderous circus elephant.

Astuto, potente, veloce: ritorna il predatore più letale dell'universo, con i suoi artigli, le sue zanne e il suo sangue acido. "Alien: Il fiume del dolore" rinnova, nella seconda stagione dell'audioserie esclusiva di Audible, il più grande mito della fantascienza.

Nella Gateaway Station, il tenente Gorman, in partenza per Acheron in missione di soccorso, convince il tenente Ripley a unirsi a lui, in veste di consulente. Intanto il comandante Brackett è con il sergente Draper, la dottoressa Hidalgo e altri Marines nel Processore Atmosferico Uno, dove è stato localizzato l'alveare degli alieni. L'intenzione è distruggerlo, ma sono in inferiorità numerica e la missione appare disperata.

In numero sempre crescente i coloni vengono uccisi e rapiti dagli xenomorfi diventati rapidamente adulti. L'amministratore coloniale Al Simpson raduna i superstiti nel magazzino del blocco D, dove concentra la linea difensiva dei Marines, nonostante il parere contrario del comandante Brackett. I dottori Reese e Mori, invece, meditano di abbandonare il pianeta a bordo della nave per l'evacuazione del team scientifico; prima, però, dovranno catturare un esemplare di xenomorfo e portare a termine la loro missione.

Tim, Newt e Aaron sfuggono alla creatura aliena nei condotti di aerazione, mentre il comandante Brackett e i suoi uomini perlustrano gli edifici della colonia di Hadley's Hope nel tentativo di stanarla. I Marines riescono a uccidere uno dei mostri, ma scoprono che dalle sue ferite fuoriesce un potente acido. Intanto, i medici cercano di staccare le creature dalle teste delle loro vittime. La dottoressa Hidalgo, intanto, cerca di mettersi in salvo nel laboratorio di analisi.

Alla colonia di Hadley's Hope, ricevuta la richiesta di aiuto di Anne, il comandante Brackett parte in missione di soccorso con una squadra di Marines. Russ è ricoverato nell'Area Medica insieme ad altri cercatori vittime degli alieni. Sotto gli occhi dei medici, qualcosa di incredibile accade al suo corpo.

A Hadley's Hope, il dottor Reese e il dottor Mori organizzano la squadra di ricognizione nella zona segnalata da Carter Burke. I cercatori prescelti per la missione sono Anne e Russ Jorden, che partono alla volta dell'Altopiano dell'Ilium accompagnati dai figli Tim e Newt e senza la scorta dei Marines. Arrivati sul posto, trovano il relitto di una misteriosa astronave aliena e si introducono al suo interno per esplorarla.
