Iran's President Ahmadinejad shocked the world when he described the Holocaust as a myth and called for Israel to be 'wiped off the map'. No wonder, then, that some Western leaders are terrified at the prospect of Iran resuming its nuclear programme.
Could Iran build and use nuclear weapons Could our cities become the target of an Iranian nuclear attack How would we be affected if Iran cut off oil supplies
Could the West's hardline attitude drive young Iranians to extremism What can we do to reduce the Iranian threat
Many see Iran as part of the 'axis of evil', and America is not alone in arguing that it presents a huge danger. But is Iran really the rabid Islamic dog that some paint it Or is it in fact the most prosperous, sophisticated, cultured nation in the Middle East, despite the President's belligerence
This book gives you the facts and lets you form your own opinion on this crucial world issue.
