Aug 25, Sotiris Makrygiannis rated it really liked it Shelves: Is this a Christian book? Argumentation is used to understand the Selfness of Christ. Good bits of advice and suggestions. An easy book that makes you think, what are you life principles? Feb 10, Pamela Fernandes rated it liked it. The first half makes sense and is practical, the second half is far more philosophical. So if you read up to the first half, it would be more than enough.
It explains how our emotions, desires and lusts cloud our minds and prevents us from peace. It does references Buddha occasionally, but it uses plenty of Christian scripture. The main understanding is conquer yourself and focus on God. As you get closer to the Holy calm and seek truth, then you will abide in peace. Another good book from James Allen.

President Harry Truman —53 is often celebrated for initiating our close and strategic partnership with Israel. Israelis have never forgotten that he was the first world leader to recognize their fledgling state, just eleven minutes after their declaration of independence. As I said that, tears suddenly sprang to his eyes.
And his eyes were still wet when he bade me goodbye. With Soviet influence entrenched in eastern and central Europe, Asia, and beyond, the United States believed it urgent to prevent the Soviets from gaining a foothold in the Middle East. Therefore his decision to recognize Israel surprised even some of the most senior officials in his administration.

This first of several Arab-Israeli wars lasted ten months; Israel was ultimately victorious, and without U. In President Dwight Eisenhower did what today is unimaginable: Because the Canal provided the shortest route for ships traveling between Europe and Asia, its geopolitical significance at the time, and even today, cannot be overstated. France and Britain had their own reasons for initiating the war, not least of which was to protect their influence and interests in the region. The British government was the largest shareholder in the Suez Canal and British and French shippers among its largest patrons.
Nasser had become the charismatic face of pan-Arab nationalism, positioning himself as the leader who would unite the Arab world and destroy Israel. Eisenhower worried that armed conflict would enhance Soviet influence in the Middle East. Though wary of Nasser and his arms deals with the Soviet Union, Eisenhower disfavored war and preferred a diplomatic solution to the Suez crisis. He immediately and unambiguously cautioned the British and the French against armed conflict. When they did not heed his warning and proceeded to involve Israel in their plans, Eisenhower was shocked and angered.
With the Soviet Union threatening to engage militarily in support of Nasser, Eisenhower scrambled to end the war in a way that preserved regional balance. But by then Israeli forces had taken full control of Sinai. Over strong objections from the Israelis, Eisenhower pushed through a United Nations resolution calling for their full and immediate withdrawal. Ben-Gurion desperately sought a meeting with the president to explain his position, that Israel was reluctant to simply withdraw its forces without clear assurances of its security and its continuing right to navigate the Canal and other international waters.

But Eisenhower refused to meet until after Israel agreed to withdraw. Ben-Gurion complied, but bitterly. Efforts to prevent the Middle East from becoming yet another cold war arena had failed, for the Soviet Union made inroads. Cairo, Baghdad, and other Arab capitals drew closer to Moscow.
And America came to view Israelis as partners in curbing and offsetting Soviet influence. Under the Kennedy and Johnson administrations Israel received its first large-scale shipments of sophisticated American weapons systems, including antiaircraft missiles, tanks, and jet fighter planes. The sales were intended to help Israel maintain its defenses against the larger and better armed Arab states still bent on its destruction and also to counterbalance Soviet arms pouring into the region. Kennedy worried about a broader nuclear arms race; Ben-Gurion viewed the arms race as inevitable absent U.
Frustrated, Kennedy warned Israel in a bluntly worded letter that U. Like his predecessors, Johnson was in part reacting to Soviet moves in the Middle East. He worried that an imbalance in power between the Israelis and the Arabs would invite an Arab attack and instigate a regional war that would threaten U. But close ties between Johnson and Israel did not mean the absence of disagreement. In the West Bank was under the control of Jordan.
