Summary:

Is it really possible to love one's enemies? This question sparked a fascinating and, at times, terrifying journey into the heart of the Middle East during the summer of 2008. It began in Egypt, passed beneath the high-rises of Saudi Arabia, then through the bullet-pocked alleyways of Beirut and dusty streets of Damascus, before ending at the cradle of the world's three major religions: Jerusalem. Join novelist Ted Dekker and Middle East expert Carl Medearis in every rocky cab ride, late-night border crossing, and back-room conversation as they sit down one-on-one with some of the most notorious leaders of the Arab world--real people with emotions, fears, and hopes of their own. Along the way, Dekker and Medearis discover surprising answers and even more surprising questions that they could not have anticipated--questions that lead straight to the heart of Middle Eastern conflict.--From publisher description.
