Book Synopsis/Review: Walid Phares' "The Coming Revolution."

Walid Phares’ “The Coming Revolution,” is a brilliant introduction into the struggle for freedom in the middle east. This is a highly narrative and an important piece of satisfying work with a welcome balance to the growing propaganda machine of the Jihadi petro imperialism, fueled by petrodollars from dictatorial Islamic ruling elite in the middle east.

Phares talks about the clash of ideas within the west, between a large Obama lead “apologist” camp denying the very exists of a Jihadi threat and a small “anti-Islamist Jihadists camp. Phares states “I strongly urge policy - makers on both side of the Atlantic to win the battle of identification. If we can’t define the enemy, the threat, its ideology, and its strategies, we surely cannot claim any advance or any so-called victory.” Phares said there are two red lines no one wants to cross: exposing Jhadism and exploring human rights of minorities and women. If you do  you will be attacked  and called a Zionist, an agent of Israel by the Muslim brotherhood against democracy. He also said the way to defeat terrorists is freeing people from oppression, the Jihadists Achilles heel is in their own societies!

Phares’ “The Coming Revolution,” is an eye opening, inside look at the pan arabists, Islamist ruling elite regimes in the middle east. A real eye opener was when I red how Obama’s foreign policy is about engaging the Assad regime in Syrian, but to a brutal dictator the word engaging has become synonymous with disengaging from democracy. I also red how Obama, by saying to the world that we would not meddle in Iran’s affairs during streets marches in Tehran and how Obama’s abandonment of Iran’s democratic revolution, which lead to the protesters in the streets chanting “Obama, Obama, you’re either with us or with them.” I think Phares did an outstanding job on reporting about the genocide and the slave trade of black Africans going on in modern-day Sudan by the Arabs. Also the losses of murdered or en-slaved of black Africans in the Sudan is twice the size of the entire population living in Gaza. Wow! This book has so much more, that everyone needs to read this book to know the truth about the oppression of minorities and women, and why the wealthy Islamist Jihad elites fear a female revolution for human rights.
