Unthinkable: Iran, the Bomb, and American Strategy

Unthinkable: Iran, the Bomb, and American Strategy
- Used Book in Good Condition
The worldâ€™s foremost expert on Middle Eastern relations examines Iranâ€™s current nuclear potential and charts Americaâ€™s future course of action.

How close are we to a nuclear Iran? What does it mean for American foreign policy? How did we get to this point? And what do we do now?

In Unthinkable, Kenneth Pollack, a former CIA analyst with twenty-five years of experience working on the Middle East, explores Americaâ€™s intractable problem with Iran, Tehranâ€™s pursuit of a nuclear weapons capability, and the proÂlonged clash that led us to this point. Pollack lays out key solutions to the Iran nuclear quesÂtion, explaining and assessing the options for American policymakers:

â€¢ Redoubling our efforts at a carrot-and-stick approach that combines negotiations and sanctions
â€¢ Aiding the Iranian opposition to bring about a popular form of regime change
â€¢ An Israeli military strike
â€¢ The American military option
â€¢ Containing a nuclear Iran

Insightful, powerful, and balanced in its approach, Unthinkable is one of the most thoughtÂful and important books on foreign policy in the past decade.
