Acclaimed historian of U.S.-Middle East foreign relations Douglas
Little examines how American presidents, policy makers, and
diplomats dealt with the rise of Islamic extremism in the modern
era. Focusing on White House decision-making from George H. W. Bush
to Barack Obama, Little traces the transformation of the Cold
War-era "Red Threat" into the "Green Threat" of radical Islam.
Analyzing key episodes from the 1991 Persian Gulf War and Bill
Clinton's mishandling of the Oslo peace process through the 9/11
attacks, George W. Bush's decision to invade Iraq, and the showdown
with ISIS, Little shows how the threat posed by Islamic "others"
shaped the Middle Eastern policies of both Democratic and
Republican presidents. This second edition includes a new afterword
that carries the story through the Trump administration and into
the Biden presidency, focusing particularly on Afghanistan, a major
trouble spot in the Muslim world that will command global attention
for many years to come.
