5.0 out of 5 stars Understanding the Middle East Conflicts, September 2, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: On a Clear Day I Can See Armageddon: The Collision of Israel, Islam, and Oil (Paperback)

This book thoroughly covers the basics of the history of the Middle East while giving a better understanding to the reader of the complexities of the reasoning of each side.

Mr. Campbell begins with a historical balanced perspective of each of the religions of Abraham: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. He follows with details of the conflicts among these three religions.

The final chapters examine the current situation in the Middle East, particularly in Iraq, and make specific recommendations how the US can best resolve the dilemma of our involvement. Suggestions for decreasing the US dependency on Middle East oil, reducing our military requirements and political solutions for the Israel - Palestine conflict are outlined for consideration.

I recommend this book to anyone who wishes to gain a more thorough understanding of the history and conflicts of the region.

This review is from: On a Clear Day I Can See Armageddon: The Collision of Israel, Islam, and Oil (Paperback)

Anyone who wants to understand the complexities and nuances
of oil, which is the lifeblood of our economic wellbeing must read three books: The Seven Sisters, The Prize, and ON A CLEAR DAY. Mr. Campbell's book is a logical and timely discussion that takes over where earlier authors have left off or just did not elablorate.
