Internet View of the Arabic World

Your Author decided to write this book based on his extensive Middle East travels augmented by the Internet View of what is happening in the Arabic countries during the first part of the 21st Century. There are chapters covering Saudi Arabia, Iran, Israel (with emphasis on its interactions with Arabic countries), Palestine, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Libya, and Afghanistan (including background information on the war in that country). There is an additional Appendix which covers an Insider's View of the Arabic World. Included are some of the author's observations while working in Iran during the time of the Shah and before the ruthless people now dictating government in Iran became leaders. I recall the many highly intelligent and well educated people I knew while in Iran. Dr. Jon Schiller has authored 2 other books about the Middle East: "Masada never again", a fictionalized history of how Israel developed nuclear weapons "IBEX", a fictionalized history of an electronic surveillance system installed in northern Iran during the Cold War to spy on the Soviets.
