I now have such a better understanding of this area, geography, cultures, religions. A great read...very well written. A must read prior to travel in this part of the world.
Understanding The Middle East May 8, 2008

I have always admired Thomas Friedman as an insightful writer of truth. Although a Jew his writing is impartial. He clearly states that he has friends both Israeli and Arab, and has been criticized by his American countrymen. I have often wondered why his opinions are not solicited by U.S. government officials, but perhaps no one wants to face the truth that on all sides of the Middle Eastern difficulties there are human beings whose opinions need to be heard and their concerns recognized.
In an spellbinding anecdotal presentation of the facts Mr. Friedman treats the reader with substance often lacking in the usual reporting that at best presents a few highlights of daily events.

The most interesting book on Middle East societies complexity March 21, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I practically loved this book...the one I had read prior to such was "Pity the Nation" by Robert Fisk and I was honestly expecting it wouldn't have been as good...but I was wrong...
Friedman, a Jewish American and Middle East correspondent during the Lebanese civil war times, gives a full image of both Lebanese and Israeli societies, the Palestinian factor, and not only.
His social background does not influence him in any aspect and in no point can we accuse him of being partial towards one sect's or country's point of view...
Moreover, on the "Jerusalem" part; we are being induced into real aspects of the Israeli society - complex as the Lebanese one - and its attitude towards the Lebanese civil war, and this is something I was actually missing in books I have read till now referring to this region and period.
I should admit I didn't enjoy much the "advice parts" (where he is actually suggesting what should be done so as to resolve the Middle East crisis) but this is a question of personal taste...
A masterpiece I dare say, if this book does not get a 5 star review, which one does then?
