Download or read book Behind the Desert Storm written by Pavel Stroilov and published by Price World Publishing. This book was released on 2011-07-15 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Using top secret documents stolen from Russian archives, historian Pavel Stroilov, a Russian dissident living in London in political exile, has written a masterpiece on the behind-the-scenes politicking of the first Gulf War that exposes direct lies in the memoirs of President Bush Senior, Brent Scowcroft and James Baker, and explains the truth behind the current revolutions throughout the Middle East. In addition to revealing a great number of never-before-seen top secret documents, Behind the Desert Storm delves into closed-doors discussions between world leaders - something that normally remains secret for a very long time. It tells the hidden history of the events which have largely determined the current state of the Middle East - from the conflict in Iraq to the Israeli-Palestinian 'peace process' to the development of the 'Eurabia' alliance between the EU and the Arab states. Looking forward, Stroilov draws out relevant lessons from history for future foreign policy.
Download or read book Stolen Omega Her Vicious Pack 1 written by Layla Heart and published by Easily Distracted Media. This book was released on 2024-11-06 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For six years, Omega Vera and Alpha Caleb have been fleeing from the pack leader she was supposed to marry. But it seems their luck has run out… The worst day of Vera’s life turned into the best day when Caleb, a random passerby, stole her out of the wedding car and drove off. Their fated bond was intense and immediate. But the two haven’t had a moment of rest since then, always looking over their shoulders, trying to stay ahead of the people sent to return Vera to her promised husband. In what’s clearly a desperate move, the pack leader hires the criminal organization run by the infamously ruthless Mathew ‘The Cleaner’ Page. The group is best known for their ability to find and transport anything, at a cost. When they live up to their reputation and capture the couple, the pack leader tactlessly tries to renegotiate the fee and pays the ultimate price. Now Mathew gives Vera and Caleb a choice, pay what he’s owed or become ‘his’… This is the first novella following Vera and her mates in the Her Vicious Pack serial, a dark contemporary Omegaverse reverse harem/Why Choose romance about a criminal found family empire with dreams of ‘expanding the family’. This novella may include any of these elements: steamy scenes, ‘I need tissues NOW’ moments, cries of ‘why, oh, why’ and cliffhangers that make you bite your nails (and curse the author). This serial has MF, MM and group scenes and will later also include FF scenes.
Download or read book The Desert and the Sea written by Michael Scott Moore and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-05-28 with total page 612 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Michael Scott Moore, a journalist and the author of Sweetness and Blood, incorporates personal narrative and rigorous investigative journalism in this profound and revelatory memoir of his three-year captivity by Somali pirates—a riveting,thoughtful, and emotionally resonant exploration of foreign policy, religious extremism, and the costs of survival. In January 2012, having covered a Somali pirate trial in Hamburg for Spiegel Online International—and funded by a grant from the Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting—Michael Scott Moore traveled to the Horn of Africa to write about piracy and ways to end it. In a terrible twist of fate, Moore himself was kidnapped and subsequently held captive by Somali pirates. Subjected to conditions that break even the strongest spirits—physical injury, starvation, isolation, terror—Moore’s survival is a testament to his indomitable strength of mind. In September 2014, after 977 days, he walked free when his ransom was put together by the help of several US and German institutions, friends, colleagues, and his strong-willed mother. Yet Moore’s own struggle is only part of the story: The Desert and the Sea falls at the intersection of reportage, memoir, and history. Caught between Muslim pirates, the looming threat of Al-Shabaab, and the rise of ISIS, Moore observes the worlds that surrounded him—the economics and history of piracy; the effects of post-colonialism; the politics of hostage negotiation and ransom; while also conjuring the various faces of Islam—and places his ordeal in the context of the larger political and historical issues. A sort of Catch-22 meets Black Hawk Down, The Desert and the Sea is written with dark humor, candor, and a journalist’s clinical distance and eye for detail. Moore offers an intimate and otherwise inaccessible view of life as we cannot fathom it, brilliantly weaving his own experience as a hostage with the social, economic, religious, and political factors creating it. The Desert and the Sea is wildly compelling and a book that will take its place next to titles like Den of Lions and Even Silence Has an End.
