The Middle East Conundrum: Examined, Explained, but Not Excused - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

The perceptions and attitudes that exist today between the Middle East and the West had their origins in former times and earlier civilizations but have been exacerbated by more recent acts of hostility and the re-emergence of an intimidating ideology. The seemingly unending conflict is no longer confined to the Middle East region but is manifesting itself more broadly, wreaking havoc on a good part of the western world, changing lifestyles and decimating economies. We are engaged in a war against terror without clearly understanding the enemy we face or the inspiration behind the zeal that drives people to bring harm to us."The Middle East Conundrum" recounts the genesis of today's conflict, reviews the history and the natures of the key players and explains those factors that drive their actions. This brief and easy-to-read book aims to leave the reader with an improved understanding of this debilitating and broadening concern that is growing increasingly perilous and intrusive.
