Enemies and allies : an unforgettable journey inside the fast-moving & immensely turbulent modern Middle East  Cover Image Book Book

Enemies and allies : an unforgettable journey inside the fast-moving & immensely turbulent modern Middle East / Joel C. Rosenberg.

Summary:

Do recent changes in the Middle East signal peace? One Arab country after another is signing historic, game-changing peace, trade, investment, and tourism deals with Israel. At the same time, Russia, Iran, and Turkey are forming a highly dangerous alliance that could threaten the Western powers. Meanwhile, the U.S. is drawing down its military forces in the Mideast and focusing on matters closer to home. Where's it all heading? Rosenberg explains the sometimes encouraging, sometimes violent, yet rapidly shifting landscape in Israel and the Arab/Muslim world. He introduce readers to some of the most complex and controversial leaders in the world, and explores the future of religion--and peace--in the Middle East. -- adapted from jacket
