In this informative, iconoclastic book, veteran foreign correspondent Martin Sieff offers a jaw-dropping survey of the history and politics of a region that people know surprisingly little about--even though it's never off the front pages of the morning papers.
In The Politically Incorrect Guide™ to the Middle East you'll learn:
Why Islamic fundamentalism isn't ancient--making it more dangerous;
Why the Saudis are part of the solution, not the problem;
Why democracy and a Marshall Plan for the Middle East would only make things worse;
Why Arab-Israeli peace is impossible; and
Why we'll miss the old Arab dictators when they're gone--because the alternative is Islamic fundamentalism
