The final move beyond Iraq by Mike Evans - BR516 .E93 2008

“New York Times best-selling author Evans calls on a slumbering church to stand against evil in The Final Move Beyond Iraq, the latest of his worksabout the volatile Middle East. Evans also challenges America to act decisively in 2007 because, he believes, Iran will soon reach the point of no return in its nuclear program. A political conservative who has served as personal confidant to many of Israel s top leaders, Evans declares that PresidentGeorge W. Bush was right to invade Iraq and that having a base for democracy in the region is essential. However, the author is more worried about Iran, which he sees as the current financier and exporter of Islamofascism, a form of radical Islam that seeks global domination. Rather than simply getting Iraq to police itself, Evans believes, the priority of the war should be on defeating Iran s nuclear plans. Evans urges the church to wake up and pray like the prophet Daniel did in the 21 days that brought deliverance to his people. Political conservatives will find Evans to be an ally and staunch advocate of the war on terror. Christine D. Johnson-- Christian Retailing: May 7, 2007" - Editorial Reviews

Osama bin Laden and Ahmadinejad will hate this little book above all others.” —R. James Woolsey, former director of the Central Intelligence Agency
