The award-winning ABC News correspondent, John K.Cooley, considers the reasons for America's involvement in Byzantine politics and the internecine warfare of the Middle East. He concludes that many of its roots are to be found in the US-Iranian warfare that has flared intermittently since the fall of the Shah. He offers explanations of a number of relevant topics, drawing on many of his sources - public, private and secret - on all sides of the issues and at the highest levels of government. The author also wrote "Libyan Sandstorm" and "Green March, Black September".
