Notable begins by examining the US's role in the overthrow of the Iranian government in 1953. He argues that this was a key turning point in US-Middle East relations, as it set the stage for the United States' subsequent interventions in the region.

Notable then goes on to discuss the US's role in the Arab-Israeli conflict. He argues that the United States has been biased in favor of Israel, and that this has led to the dispossession of the Palestinians and the ongoing instability in the region.

Notable also discusses the US's invasion of Iraq in 2003. He argues that this was a war based on lies, and that it has had disastrous consequences for Iraq and the entire Middle East.

Notable concludes by arguing that the United States must change its approach to the Middle East. He calls for an end to war and deception, and for a new era of cooperation and respect.

War, Deceit, Imperial Folly, and the Making of the Modern Middle East is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the complex history of the Middle East and the United States' role in the region. Notable's book is a powerful indictment of US foreign policy, and it offers a much-needed alternative vision for the future.
