Neuware - On the tenth anniversary of Desert Storm, a leading commentator on the region investigates events in Iran and Iraq since the war ended, uncovering the mutual deception and intrigue that have marked America's protracted conflict with Iraq.In 'Neighbors, Not' 'Friends,' Middle East expert Dilip Hiro blows the cover on how Iraq cheated the UN inspectors on disarmament, and how the US conversely manipulated and infiltrated the UN inspection teams to gather intelligence on Iraq and overthrow Saddam Hussein. Combining first-hand journalistic accounts with political expertise, Hiro assesses the checkered past and future of these embattled nations. He also investigates Hussein, who shows no signs of relinquishing office despite the devastating deprivation suffered by the Iraqi people. He simultaneously tracks the recent upheavals and the development of domestic politics in Iran, where a liberal government strives for authority against a conservative religious right wing.Hailed as 'perceptive,' 'balanced,' and 'definitive,' Hiro's previous books 'The Longest War' and 'Desert Shield to Desert Storm' won rave reviews for taking us from the trenches of the Iran-Iraq war to its inevitable climax in the Desert Storm campaign. Completing the trilogy, 'Neighbors, Not Friends' continues Hiro's trenchant analysis, yielding the first, full balanced account of Iran and Iraq and their pivotal position for the US and the world today.
