April 13, 2006. A Jerusalem Post headline reads: "Jericho man murdered over home sale." The 42 year-old father of eight was kidnapped, shot seven times, thrown into his car, and set on fire, because he had sold his Jerusalem apartment to Jews.

In this revealing book, Dore Gold, former Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, reminds us that the war on terror is also a war on faith.

If anything has become clear, it’s that our understanding of the Arab Islamic world remains shrouded and incomplete. The seeds of revolution, radicalism, and—possibly—reform are buried in the individual stories of millions of people whose lives determine the fates of their societies, people whose motivations are as common, and as strange, as our own. Here is one of those stories—and the story of how this world is being transformed, one life at a time.

America's engagement with the Arab world stretches back far beyond the Iraq wars. According to Milton Viorst, the current conflict is simply the latest round in a 1,400-year struggle between Christianity and Islam, in which the United States became a participant only in the last century.

The conflict between the Israelis and Palestinians is technically over 70 years old and counting but has its roots in over 2,000 years of history. With so much time and history, the Middle East peace process has become laden with unique, politically sensitive concepts like the right of return, contiguous borders, secure borders, demilitarized zones, and security requirements, with players like the Quartet, Palestinian Authority, Fatah, Hamas, the Arab League and Israel.

Al-Shams World: A Solo Player RPG Setting Imagine this: you are on the edge of a vast desert, where the sun shines with relentless fury, casting long shadows on the dunes that stretch endlessly towards the horizon. It is not just any wasteland: it is Al-Shams, the land scorched by fire and reborn from its ashes.

Before the Great War, this was Qadim: a realm of golden temples and ...

Durante siglos, viajeros, diplomáticos y políticos (hombres, en definitiva) dibujaron el inmenso territorio que va desde Marruecos a Afganistán como un "Oriente" a la vez exótico y amenazante, plagado de fanatismo y en el que la parte femenina de la sociedad raramente aparecía sino era bajo velos y sumisión.
