James F. Petras

The Politics of Empire

The US, Israel and the Middle East

Buch

The trillion dollar cost of US wars for Israel, has alienated the vast majority of US society. This study shows how the domestic foundations of empire building have deteriorated and forced the imperial presidency to modify its approach, seeking diplomatic negotiations over new military interventions, specifically in the cases of Syria and Iran.
