How America Intervenes in the Middle East and North Africa: It’s Déjà Vu All Over Again
There are no winners in war: only losers. In this lecture series, we will examine the role of the
American military and covert CIA activities in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA
countries) across several significant interventions since World War II, and we will try to
determine why (in my opinion as an amateur historian and analyst) we get it wrong over and
over again, while creating literally millions of enemies that might harm the USA.
