Oil, Power, & Empire : Iraq and the U.S. Global Agenda

Rating:
Summary: U.S. foreign policy in a nutshell
Review: Before I started reading Oil Power Empire I had knowledge of the various topic areas but not the detailed analysis or keen insights outlined in this book. Now I feel more confident when I discuss Iraq because I am clearer on the historical background, both politically and economically. I like the way Everest cites the facts. It enables me to theorise on possible future political outcomes. This book is for every American that is seeking an intelligent understanding of foreign policy in Iraq and wishes to participate through solutions based on standard principles versus global domination.

Summary: A good exposure of the real nature of the battle
Review: I have just finished reading this book, and I just find it very fascinating in how Larry Everest lays forth the background to the current events in the Middle East, and how it is key for very powerful forces to make sure that they stay on top of the heap. This book pulls no punches in terms of what is going on and it brings together the entire situation by looking at the big picture and not just events separated from one another. Another big plus about this book is that when you read the book, you get a sense that you are in a room just chatting and hanging out with Larry Everest there is a back and forth between him, you and other folks discussing this book and what it means, and how do we go about changing the world and seeing that there are other choices for which way the future should be. That we do not have to choose between the Malevolent Mouse and the Mad Mullahs. This book is a must read for any one seeking to make sense of the events in the Middle East and the world today.

Summary: Worse fears confirmed
Review: I just saw Larry Everest on CSpan as well. This man is no nutcase-- he makes the kind of sense that gives a chilling credibility to one's worst suspicions and fears about what is going on in this country right now. I knew nothing about him or his book but I'm about to buy it innediately!

Summary: Larry Everest
Review: I saw Mr. Everest on Book TV (C-SPAN) today (May 23)--would love to have him lecture at my college. He's done his homework on this one. He brought up two other topics that I researched during the last two semesters and he hit the mark on both (gay marriage and women's rights). After watching him, I went to Barne & Nobles to purchase this book. They did not have one copy. Needless to say, I'm ordering from Amazon.

Summary: Larry Everest
Review: This is the best book of its type i've yet come across. Very complete, detailed, highly readable. Makes one mad, but it ends on a somewhat positive note, indicating some cause for hope. The author has fully documented all facts and allegations.
