U.S., Israel, and Iran: Inside the War That Reshaped the Middle East:
In February 2026, decades of mounting tension between Washington, Jerusalem, and Tehran erupted into open war. What began as airstrikes targeting Iran's nuclear and military infrastructure spiraled into a multi-front conflict that drew in Gulf states, disrupted global shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, and reshaped the security landscape of an entire region.
This book traces how it happened — and why.
Starting with the long history behind the conflict, from the 1953 coup and the 1979 hostage crisis through the collapse of the nuclear deal, this account explains the political decisions, military strategies, and human costs that defined the war. You'll explore:
•The historical roots — how a century of mistrust, oil politics, and broken agreements set the stage for war
•The political calculations — domestic pressures, institutional rivalries, and the role of allies that pushed leaders in Washington and Tehran toward conflict
•The military campaign — naval confrontations in the Persian Gulf, missile exchanges, cyber warfare, and the proxy networks that widened the battlefield
•The human and economic toll — civilian casualties, displacement, health system strain, and the costs of sanctions and reconstruction
•The diplomatic response — international reactions, ceasefire negotiations, and the path toward regional stability
Written in clear, accessible language and structured to help readers understand a fast-moving, complex conflict, this is a grounded account of how the war unfolded — and the choices that will shape what comes next.
