Les meilleurs ennemis. Une histoire des relations entre les Etats-Unis et le Moyen-Orient.

review 1: Id recommended this graphic novel to young adults who are interested in the history and politics of the relationship between the U.S. and the Middle East but not for older individuals who want a more nuanced account of the relationship between the two. Simple, the graphics are delightful but besides that, a lot more could have been integrated into the novel and it’s a misfortune it hasn't been.
review 2: This masterfully crafted graphic novel created by Jean-Pierre Filiu and David B. depicts the complicated U.S.-Middle East conflict from ancient times to the 1950's. The story begins with Muslim piracy in the Mediterranean, which lead to the first wars with the United States for they were capturing American ships. As the centuries progressed the conflict turne... mored more towards oil and who had control over it. The novel covers such historical figures from Thomas Jefferson to Mohammad Mossadegh. It highlights a conflict which dates all the way back to the 1700s, but not only that many people know the origins of. I enjoyed reading this graphic novel because the illustrations are creative and draw the reader into the book. They are also able to so the good and the bad from both sides of the conflict, which helped me gain a better understanding of the situation. I also enjoyed reading this book because it went in depth and analysed the causes of the U.S.-Middle East conflict. After reading this book, I know realize that there were mistakes and betrayals on both sides. I would definitely recommend this graphic novel to anyone, whether they're a history buff or not. less
