The Middle East has long been a battleground of rival religions, ideologies, nationalisms, and dynasties. All of these conflicts - including the hostilities between Arabs and Israelis that have flared up yet again - stem from its political inheritance : the arrangements, unities, and divisions imposed upon the region by the Allies after the First World War. In "A peace to end all peace", David Fromkin reveals how and why the Allies came to remake the geography and politics of the Middle East, drawing lines on an empty map that eventually became the new countries of Iraq, Israel, Jordan, and Lebanon. Focusing on the formative years of 1914 to 1922, when everything - even an alliance between Arab nationalism and Zionism - seemed possible and oil was not a political issue, Fromkin shows how the choices narrowed and the Middle East began along a road that led to the endless wars and the escalating acts of terrorism that continue to this day.
