I am not familiar with this type of book.It was my grandson's.The back cover reads;After the flames of the Gulf War have smouldered and died,a bloodthirsty madman still holds the reins of power in Iraq-and points a devastating chemical weapons arsenal at the vulnerable heart of his most hated enemy.The call for a Holy War has united the Arab world.In Israel,the way is being prepared for the inevitable response-nuclear retaliation.And a U.S. president,weakened politically and militarily,dispatches a squadron of F-15 fighter planes to the volatile region-in a desperate gamble that will either avert Armageddon...or hasten its coming.
