Bücher von Douglas Little

In this important new book, Douglas Little explores the political and cultural turmoil that led US policy makers to shift their attention from containing the "Red Threat" of international communism to combatting the "Green Threat" of radical Islam after 1989. Little analyzes America's confrontation with Islamic extremism through the traditional ideological framework of "us versus them".

Explores the stormy American relationship with the Middle East from World War II through to the war in Iraq, focusing particularly on the interests that helped put the United States on a collision course with radical Islam. This book also examines oil, Israel, and other aspects of US policy.
