T.E. Lawrence, more popularly known as Lawrence of Arabia, was a seminal figure in the shaping and reshaping of the politics of Arabia in the early 20th century, serving as an expert in Arab affairs in the British military and playing a key role in the Great Arab Revolt of 1916-1918.

Noted journalist Yardena Schwartz draws on her extensive research and wide-ranging interviews with both sides to tell a timely, eye-opening story. She expertly weaves the war between Israel and Hamas into a historical framework, demonstrating how the conflict today cannot be understood without the context of ground zero of this century-old war, which began long before the occupation, the settlements, or the state of Israel ever existed.

Since the Second World War, Arab armed forces have consistently punched below their weight. They have lost many wars that by all rights they should have won, and in their best performances only ever achieved quite modest accomplishments. Over time, soldiers, scholars, and military experts have offered various explanations for this pattern.

Em 1948, 700 mil palestinos foram forçados a deixar seus lares depois da primeira guerra árabe-israelense. Mais de 70 anos depois, a maioria de suas casas não existe mais, mas milhões de seus descendentes ainda estão registrados como refugiados, vivendo em campos destinados a eles. Esse grupo – diferentemente de vários outros que foram deslocados no pós-Segunda Guerra e outros conflitos – permaneceu desterrado, exigindo assentar-se no Estado de Israel. Sua crença no direito ao retorno é um dos maiores obstáculos a uma diplomacia bem-sucedida e uma paz duradoura na região.

Lírico e evocatório, este audiolivro é uma das tentativas mais convincentes de estabelecer um diálogo além do muro que separa israelenses e palestinos. Em uma série de cartas, Yossi Klein Halevi se empenha para desfazer o nó ideológico e emocional que tem definido o conflito israelense-palestino por quase um século. Fazendo uso da história e da experiência pessoal como seus guias, ele desemaranha os complexos filamentos de fé, orgulho, raiva e angústia que sente como um judeu vivendo em Israel.

The Arab Spring promised to end dictatorship and bring self-government to people across the Middle East. Yet everywhere except Tunisia it led to either renewed dictatorship, civil war, extremist terror, or all three. In The Arab Winter, Noah Feldman argues that the Arab Spring was nevertheless not an unmitigated failure, much less an inevitable one. Rather, it was a noble, tragic series of events in which, for the first time in recent Middle Eastern history, Arabic-speaking peoples took free, collective political action as they sought to achieve self-determination.

In the seventh and eighth centuries AD, armies inspired by the new religion of Islam burst out of Arabia to subjugate the Levant, southwest Asia, North Africa and the Iberian peninsula. These Arab conquests followed immediately after the Prophet Mohammed's death in 632. By this time, against all the odds, he had managed to unite the feuding tribes of Arabia at the point of his sword. The Muslim conquests lasted until 750, by which time several generations of marauding Arab armies had carved out an Islamic empire which, in size and population, rivalled that of Rome at its zenith.

There have been literally hundreds of books about T. E. Lawrence, best known as Lawrence of Arabia, but never a work quite like Legion. Legion tells the astonishing life story of an man who was far more than a war hero; for Lawrence was also an archaeologist, a linguist and translator, a historian and classicist, a marine engineer, an airman and one of the great English writers of the 20th century. He was also an enigma, even at times to himself, tormented by guilt and shame, by his masochism, self-loathing and his fear of his own sexuality.

Nesta biografia de um dos mais conhecidos guerreiros de nosso tempo, o ouvinte descobre como Lawrence - que não foi o primeiro, nem o único militar a servir junto às forças árabes rebeldes da época, tampouco o oficial de mais alta patente a assistir os líderes da sublevação - tornou-se um destacado e influente assessor militar dos mais importantes chefes árabes.

È l'inizio di una saga che nel giro di qualche anno trasformerà il giovane e sconosciuto sottotenente gallese nell'epica figura di Lawrence d'Arabia.

يَرْوي كتاب «25 يوماً إلى عدن» القصةَ الحقيقية لتشكيلِ دُولِ الخليج العربي، خلالَ أسبوعٍ واحد، تحالُفاً من عشرِ دُولٍ، أطلَقَ أكبرَ عمليةٍ عسكرية تُشَنُّ من طرفٍ واحد. وقد تَعرَّضَت تلك الحملةُ لفتراتٍ من المدِّ والجَزْر؛ حيث كانت المُقاوَمةُ الجنوبية أحياناً على شفيرِ أن تُسحَق وهي تُقاتِل والبحرُ من ورائها، لكنها تَمكَّنَت من الصمودِ، وهزَمَت الغُزاةَ في نهاية المَطاف وانطلَقَت في إثْرِهم. إنها قصَّةٌ مُذهِلة تَرْوي كيف تَمكَّنَت جيوشٌ عربية من إنجازِ ما لم تَستطِع الولاياتُ المتحدة الأمريكية إنجازَه؛ أيْ مَنْع إيران من الحصول على مَوطِئِ قَدَمٍ في شِبه الجزيرة العربية. كما يروي الكتاب كيف تَمكَّنَت قواتٌ عربية خاصَّة من «قتالِ شبحٍ آتٍ من الجبال، بجوارِ أهمِّ مَعْبَرٍ بَحْريٍّ في العالَم»، مِثلما رَوى أحدُ المُقاتِلين المُشارِكين في الحَمْلة.

ISIS - the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria - has taken on the mantle of being the single most dangerous terrorist threat to global security since al-Qaeda.

Lawrence, more popularly known as Lawrence of Arabia, was a seminal figure in the shaping and reshaping of the politics of Arabia in the early 20th century, serving as an expert in Arab affairs in the British military and playing a key role in the Great Arab Revolt of 1916-1918.

Striking where the enemy is weakest and melting away into the darkness before he can react. Never confronting a stronger force directly, but using audacity and surprise to confound and demoralize an opponent. Operations driven by good intelligence, area knowledge, mobility, speed, firepower, and detailed planning, and executed by a few specialists with indigenous warriors—this is unconventional warfare.
