My new book, The Great Betrayal: The Struggle for Freedom and Democracy in the Middle East, traces over a century of key events in the region, from the European carve-up of the #MiddleEast to the Iranian Revolution, Arab Spring, and #Israel’s war on #Gaza.

My new book, The Great Betrayal: The Struggle for Freedom and Democracy in the Middle East, is out today! It explains how the region's people have been betrayed by foreign powers and local autocrats. No wonder political change has been so difficult to achieve in the #MiddleEast.
