Showdown with nuclear Iran
I wish more people would look deep inside the situation as a whole. Let's
just be neutral, for every action there's a reaction. The West had been
tearing the ME apart for over a century. I believe that right now they are just fighting back . But one must read in order to have a personal opinion.
Goebbels would be proud ...
Ill-researched, dogmatic and demented - classic warmongering, in which religion plays its usual reactionary role. For example, US tele-evangelist Jim Robison opened a Republican National Convention by saying, "There will be no peace until Jesus comes. Any preaching of peace prior to this return is heresy. It is against the word of God. It is anti-Christ." This is a mirror-image of bin Laden's rhetoric. Evans is the same - frighten us into hysteria, to justify attacking a country that is no threat.
Corsi
I haven't read this book, so I wish I didn't have to rate it, just to add a comment. Unfortunately, Amazon requires a rating. So I gave it a "middling" rating of 3 stars.
The topic is certainly timely and important. The book might be excellent, and it might be accurate... but I fear that it might not be. The reason that I worry about the book's reliability is that I know that "contributor" Jerome Corsi is not a trustworthy source. For proof, you can google for the quoted phrase, "Corsi is a dishonest journalist"
If anyone thinks that doesn't matter, I would suggest contemplating the truth of Luke 16:10.

Showdown with Nuclear Iran
Michael Evans knows exactly what he is talking about and if you really want the truth about Iran you must read this book. I can only pray that the US will wake up and quit listening to the controlled media and realize what is really happening and why. This book is truth.
Informative, but dry
This book taught me a lot about Iran's past and present, but the information was presently too dryly for me to give it five stars. It's a good read if you're interested in the nuclear situation with Iran, but I would have liked it if the book delved further into the religious ideas behind Iran's actions.
