DESCRIPTION:Join us as Yale World Fellow and journalist Lina Sinjab leads

 erican.\n\nFrom the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon to Operation Epic Fu
 ry\, Ghattas tells the story of four decades of US-Israel vs. Iran confro
 ntation\, a geopolitical tragedy woven together with the human tragedy of
  the 1984 assassination in Beirut of Malcolm Kerr\, beloved Middle East s
 cholar and president of the American University of Beirut. Her book tells
  the story of Benjamin Netanyahu as deputy ambassador to Washington in 19
 82\; the unknown story of Imad Mughniyeh's first-ever kidnapping\; the in
 credible strength of Ann Kerr looking for answers\; the callousness of Le
 banon's warlords\; the integrity of unsung Lebanese heroes\, and American
  presidents from Reagan to Trump grappling with the Islamic Republic of I
 ran.\n\nThe book has already received great praise. Kai Bird called it "a
  miraculous achievement\," Scott Anderson said it was "Masterful\," and W
 illiam Dalrymple described it as a "Levantine In Cold Blood." The New Yor
 k Times also listed it among 29 non-fiction books to read this fall.\n\nh
