Very thorough background information on the history of the Middle East {He goes back to Abraham's covenent with God}Included are the rise of Islam, the role of Britain in the partition of the Ottoman empire after WW1, the history of Christain fundamentalismin the US since the 17th century, anti-Semitism vs,the Biblical book of Revelation, the rise ofradical Evangelicalism & its appeal to George W. Bush who ignored the policies of his father George H.W. Bush & followed the Neoconservative policy (which the author explains in detail) & the origins of the invasion of Iraq. This is a good book for someone who follows politics only casually but as a resident of the US needs to become aware of people & events that are shaping our future & that of our children.
