520 1# - SUMMARY, ETC. |
Summary, etc |
"In recent decades the Middle East has proved to be one of the most troubling as well as important parts of the world. The war in Iraq, the standoff with Iran, the regular failures to find a diplomatic solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the continuing danger posed by al Qaeda all testify to the intractability of the region's problems." "Presidents from Jimmy Carter to George W. Bush have grappled with the region's persistent and cross-cutting conflicts, and confronted fundamental questions about the use of force, the role of allies, and international law. In A Choice of Enemies, Lawrence Freedman shows how three events in 1979 set the terms for the later U.S. involvement in the Middle East: the Egyptian-Israeli Peace Treaty; the Islamic revolution in Iran leading to the Shah's overthrow followed by the American embassy siege; and the Soviet invasion in Afghanistan. Through a series of vivid accounts he describes the many dramas into which the U.S. was then drawn, including the withdrawal from Beirut, the Iran-Contra Affair, and 9/11."--BOOK JACKET. |
