Dr. Thomas H. Henriksen in this publication provides a perspective on the challenging question, 'Is leaving the Middle East a Viable Option?' He lays out a convincing argument that historical involvement within the region based on commercial ties, the need to secure stable international oil supplies (for the U.S. as well as its allies), and engagement in the internecine Israeli-Arab conflict all remain critical security issues for the United States. He captures in a few pages volumes of information on the Middle East as he crafts and weaves the history of United States’ involvement from 1783 to the present, highlighting the key policy-making decisions concerning the Middle East. The historical review provides the novice reader new understanding of the Middle East and the knowledgeable reader an excellent overview.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
