Enemies by Design
Author: Greg Felton
Publisher: Banned Books
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 470
Book Description
An Arab proverb has it.... "Whom the gods would destroy, they first drive mad." Empires do the same. Through the lens of a life of bin Laden, we follow the US-UK footprint on the Arab world -- fostering reactionary regimes to divide and conquer -- forging pretexts to invade Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine -- and falling prey to a corrupt cult of violence and obscurantism called fascism. In war, the gods themselves go mad.... George W. Bush's "war on terrorism" is a folly committed in the name of a foreign state's self-interest. That state is Israel. How the U.S. became an instrument of Israeli foreign policy, and how this subordination is responsible for the official bigotry toward Arabs and Muslims, is the main theme of this book. Only from this perspective can the "war on terrorism" be fully understood.

Children with Enemies
Author: Stuart Dischell
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022649859X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 72
Book Description
In his fourth book of poems, Stuart Dischell is part elegist, part fabulist, part absurdist; or, as one critic puts it, "a lovely, encompassing mirror of our little but to us so urgent human life." Dischell is a poet who writes at the edges of imagination, memory, and experience, and the poems here are by turns socially outward and inwardly reflective, or darkly comic and heartbreakingly remorseful--but always beautifully crafted and unpredictable. In Dischell's hands, the poems in Children with Enemies come alive to the complications and implications of what it means to be human.
