Offering a comprehensive, up-to-date examination of the complex web
of wars and proxy wars, revolutions and counter-revolutions that
are ripping the Middle East apart, this book puts these events in
their historical context and leads readers through the labyrinth
that is the new Middle East. This book seeks answers to pressing,
contentious questions. Why are there so many hereditary heads of
state in the Middle East when the Prophet Muhammad did not appoint
a successor? Why do Western countries claim to want democracy in
the Middle East, yet support dictators? Why did Israel become a
democracy while the Arab states did not? Why are there so many wars
in the Middle East? And, most importantly, what happened to the
hope and optimism of the Arab Spring? M.E. McMillan offers fresh
answers to these difficult questions. Firmly grounded in historical
research and insightful analysis of current events, this book gives
readers a new understanding of what's really going on in the Middle
East.
