A longtime American foreign policy insider’s penetrating
and definitive reckoning with this country’s involvement in the
Middle East—and its bitter end
The culmination of almost forty years at the highest levels of
policymaking and scholarship, Grand
Delusion is Steven Simon’s tour de force, offering
a comprehensive and deeply informed account of U.S. engagement
in the Middle East. Simon begins with the Reagan
administration, when American perception of the Middle East
shifted from a cluster of faraway and frequently skirmishing
nations to a shining, urgent opportunity for America to (in
Reagan’s words) “serve the cause of world peace and the future
of mankind.”
Reagan fired the starting gun on decades of deepening American
involvement, but as the global economy grew, bringing an
increasing reliance on oil, U.S. diplomatic and military
energies were ever more fatefully absorbed by the Middle East
until the Obama administration and its successors finally
sought to disentangle America from the region.
Grand Delusion explores the motivations,
strategies, and shortcomings of each presidential
administration from Reagan to today, exposing a web of
intertwined events—from Lebanese civil conflict to shifting
Iranian domestic politics, Cold War rivalries, and Saudi
Arabia’s quest for security to 9/11 and the war on
terror—managed by a Washington policy process frequently ruled
by wishful thinking and partisan politics.
Simon’s sharp sense of irony and incisive writing bring a
complex history to life. He questions the motives behind
America's commitment to Israel; explodes the popular narrative
of Desert Storm as a “good war”; and calls out the devastating
consequences of our mistakes, particularly for people of the
region trapped by the onslaught of American military action and
pitiless economic sanctions.
Grand Delusion
reveals that this story, while episodically impressive,
was too often tragic and at times dishonorable. As we enter a
new era in foreign policy, this is an essential book, a
cautionary history that illuminates American's propensity for
self-deception and misadventure at a moment when the nation is
redefining its engagement with a world in crisis.
