Inscribed by the author on the fep. The inscription reads: "Washington D.C. June 16 1999 For Phyllis & Bob Oakley in friendship - & with many memories. John Cooley". Robert Bigger Oakley March 12 1931 – December 10 2014 was an American diplomat whose 34-year career 1957–1991 as a Foreign Service Officer included appointments as United States Ambassador to Zaire Somalia and Pakistan and in the early 1990s as a special envoy during the American involvement in Somalia. In January 1995 he joined the Institute for National Strategic Studies at the National Defense University. John Kent Cooley November 25 1927 – August 6 2008 was an American journalist and author who specialized in islamist groups and the Middle East. Based in Athens he worked as a radio and off-air television correspondent for ABC News and was a long-time contributing editor to the Christian Science Monitor. Cooley was one of only a handful of Western journalists widely regarded and trusted in the Middle East as an expert on the area's history and politics. He interviewed several of the region's heads of state and was personally acquainted with the senior leadership of the PLO. His many awards include the Council on Foreign Relations' Fellowship for American Foreign Correspondents and the coveted George Polk Award for distinguished career achievement in international reporting. He was a part of the ABC News Prime Time Live team that won a 1990 Emmy for its investigation into the December 21 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103. The book presents Cooley's account of United States policies and alliances from 1979 to 1989 in the Middle East the flaws and the lacunae inherent in US handling of the affairs and their contribution into the emergence of a form of terrorism which continues to affect several regions of the World. Cooley has spent decades in the Middle East and the book is the result of his studies of the subject matter and his interaction with a number of administrators diplomats politicians and the common people. To oppose the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in 1979 the US formed an extraordinary anti-communist alliance with militant Islamic forces in Central Asia. In this controversial book John Cooley provides a behind-the-scenes account of this alliance and of how the CIA planned and ran the "holy war" in Afghanistan. Cooley describes the development of US foreign policy and CIA covert activity in the 1980s which facilitated the training and arming of almost a quarter of a million Islamic mercenaries drawn from across the Arab world. Cooley marshals evidence to demonstrate the devastating consequences of this training once the mercenaries returned to their own countries - from the assassination of Sadat the destabilization of Algeria and Chechenya and the emergence of the Taliban to the bombings of the World Trade Center and the US embassies in Africa. Cooley examines the crucial role of Pakistan's military intelligence organization; uncovers China's involvement and its aftermath; the extent of Saudi financial support; the role of "America's most wanted man" the guerrilla leader Osama bin Laden; the BCCI connection; and the CIA's cynical promotion of drug traffic in the Golden Crescent.
