This book explores the nature of the ideological conflict in the Middle East, which began in the 19th century and fully erupted after WWI. Since the collapse of the Islamic theocratic regime of the Ottoman Empire in 1918, two types of diametrically opposed ideologies have been competing to overtake the region of the Middle East: secular and religious. Both stem from the same source: awareness of social ills?rampant poverty and illiteracy, oppression of women, racial hostility, nomadism, religious fanaticism, and lack of education?along with frustration with the West imperial power.
