Ropes of sand

Book • 1980
Wilbur Crane Eveland's 'Ropes of Sand' offers a critical examination of U.S.

foreign policy in the Middle East, arguing that a series of miscalculations and misunderstandings have undermined American interests in the region.

Drawing on his experience as a CIA operative, Eveland provides an insider's perspective on the complex relationships between the United States, Arab nations, and Israel.

The book analyzes the historical, political, and economic factors that have shaped U.S.

policy, highlighting the unintended consequences of decisions made in Washington.

Eveland contends that a lack of cultural sensitivity and a failure to appreciate the nuances of Middle Eastern politics have contributed to a legacy of mistrust and instability.

His work serves as a cautionary tale about the challenges of navigating the region's turbulent landscape.
