Introduction Iran (166 results)

Paperback. Condition: Good. Iran has rarely been out of the headlines. Yet media interest and extensive coverage has tended to hinder rather than help our understanding of Iran as an idea, an identity, and a people, leading to a superficial understanding of what is a complex and nuanced political culture and civilization. This Very Short Introduction presents a radical reinterpretation of Iranian history and politics, placing the Islamic Revolution in the context of a century of political change and social transformation. By considering the various factors that have contributed towards the construction of the idea of Iran and the complex identity of Iranians themselves, Ali Ansari steers a clear path towards a more realistic understanding for us all.

Maniacal dictators are pursuing a nuclear weapons program. High~level US politicians have accepted campaign money from donors sympathetic to the causes of the rogue regime And European powers are resigned to appeasement as their only option. The current US administration declares it will not allow the rogue nation to possess nuclear weapons and Israel vows "never again" to let the Jewish people be threatened with annihilation. This may seem like the plot for a new action thriller movie. but it actually is a snapshot of a brewing storm in the Middle East ~the threat of an atomic Iran The rogue terrorist state and the mullahs who govern it are on a collision course with those who seek to stop its development of nuclear weapons. In Atomic Iran Jerome Corsi, coauthor of the best~selling Unfit for Command. uncovers the true intentions and practices of the Iranian regime. In doing so, he sheds light on pro~mullah financiers who make significant campaign contributions to political leaders who are in position to affect US trade policy toward Iran and to work at normalizing diplomatic relations. thereby legitimizing the rogue republic. In examining the nuclear standoff, Corsi pulls back the veil of secrecy and discloses the dark secrets and practices that hold the people of Iran hostage. The mullahs suppress all dissent by regularly unleashing terrorist practices on their own people, including inhumane execution, public torture, secret trials, rape, and kidnapping. While the vast majority of Iranians are desperate for a change, they live in fear and have little hope. Iran continues to oppress its people and threaten the world because it has learned to manipulate world oil prices in order to increase revenue for its international terrorist activities and nuclear pursuits. Corsi warns that a nuclear Iran would devastate the Middle East with its tyrannical policies and have a significant impact on the world by leveraging its control over a vast amount of the global oil supply. Oil prices could be driven to over $100 and even $200 per barrel. Atomic Iran is a wake~up call to Americans and to the world. It challenges world leaders to examine freedom for the Iranian people as the only peaceful way to prevent this brewing catastrophe. It is also a call to the American public to pay attention to the growing crisis with Iran and to hold US politicians accountable for their relationships with and efforts on behalf of the Iranian regime. By understanding the events that led to Iran's arrival at the verge of nuclear statehood, the intentions of the mullahs, their connection with American politicians, and the severe repercussions to be suffered from allowing the regime to proceed with its plans, concerned citizens will be equipped to take the debate to their local communities and to the officials they have entrusted with their safety and security.…
