Opis: Sinai - Mohannad Sabry

The Sinai Peninsula holds a unique strategic and political significance for Egypt and its neighbours. Enclosed by the Suez Canal and bordering Gaza and Israel, Egypt's rugged eastern province has been the cornerstone of the Egyptian-Israeli peace accords, yet its internal politics and security have remained largely under media blackout. While the international press descended on the capital Cairo in January 2011, Sinai's armed rebellion was largely ignored. The regime lost control of the peninsula in a matter of days and since then, unprecendented chaos has reigned. In this crucial analysis, Mohannad Sabry argues that Egypt's shortsighted approach to national security has continually proven to be a failure. "Mohannad Sabry is one of Egypt's best young writers--and one of the first to understand the new dangers in Sinai. His book has the "ground truth" that can only come from careful, close-up reporting. This is the kind of smart, independent journalism that Egypt needs to build a truly strong future."--David Ignatius, The Washington Post"For years now, Sabry has been on the ground in the Sinai, seeing and observing a story that so many others have missed...This is an important and timely book filled with field research and reporting that anyone who cares about the future of the Middle East needs to read."--Charles M. Sennott, founder and executive director of The GroundTruth Project and Middle East correspondent for The Boston Globe
