‘This book is typically Cooley: much needed and brilliant.’ John Pilger / ‘The Iraq war is unintelligible without the history John Cooley’s brave new book provides.’ Brady Kiesling, former US Diplomat / John Cooley, a former correspondent for ABC News and the Christian Science Monitor, argues that America’s new invasion and occupation of Iraq marks a turning point in the West’s relationship with the Arab world, and alters the balance of power within the Middle East.
