I just finished reading his 2002 book, The High Price of Peace, an extremely detailed presentation of the diplomatic dance between US--Israel--PLO/PA--the rest of the Arab World 1988--2002. The book sometimes reads like a rough intelligence assessment, with lots of data and minutes of meetings, but with not enough narrative to sustain interest. Nevertheless, it thoroughly establishes the thesis that the Oslo Accords and the "Peace Process" led to a severe weakening of the security position of Israel and to the USA (read: Clinton admin) obsessed with the Israel-PA problem such that the USA failed to see the larger geo-political dramas unfolding in the Middle East. Some surprising claims: 1. That Iran took possession of Atomic Weapons already in 1992; 2. That Mubarak is fully in line with the avowed agenda of Hamas, to wipe Israel off the map.
