A War Too Far: Iran, Iraq, and the New American Century Hardback - 2006

World-renowned security expert Paul Rogers tackles these questions, offering a uniquely insightful analysis of events during and after the war. Examining the delicate balance of power in Iraq, he explores the options for a US exit strategy, and how the invasion affects America's relationship with Iran.

Paul Rogers predicted in 2000 that the US would experience a terrorist attack on its own soil. Subsequent events proved how accurate he was. This book is required reading for students, journalists, policy-makers and anyone interested in getting the whole story about the dangerous consequences of the latest American venture in the Middle East.

Paul Rogers explores:

- The neo-conservative vision of a US-dominated Middle East
- The oil link - Iraq's significance in energy geopolitics
- Links with Israel - the development of close military cooperation between the US and Israeli military
- The growing possibility of a war on Iran and its potential repercussions
