The Conquest of the Middle East
In his talk about his new book, The Great War for Civilization, Robert Fisk offers his thoughts on the most urgent issues of our day: From the Algerian war, the Palestine Israel war, the invasion of Afghanistan, the sanctions on Iraq and the spread of depleted uranium, each invasion by the new and old colonial powers has made Muslims more angry of the West. In light of decades of bloodshed Fisk says how surprised he is “how restrained Muslims have been with us.”
Robert Fisk has lived in and reported on the Middle East since 1976 and has seen or tracked down firsthand accounts of all the major events of the last quarter century. He speaks Arabic and has a keen understanding of both the plight of ordinary people and the machinations of extraordinary villains and politicians. He was recorded at a benefit for the Middle East Children’s Alliance ,in Berkeley CA, November 19, 2005.
