Americans see shouting mobs or car bombs and they wonder what are the causes of this anger and mistrust? How can America prevent the world from becoming even more polarized and allowing rising resentment toward our policies to increase al Qaeda's levels of recruitment? Author John Bromell combines an analysis of the policy misjudgments that have divided the post-9/11 world with an evocative collection of conversations with individuals living with the affects of conflict. This book explores the perspectives of Afghans, Palestinians, Israelis and Iraqis living with the consequences of war, occupation and terrorism. Some extremists view the conflicts in Afghanistan and Iraq as a war on Islam. Others find the conflicts reminiscent of a not so distant colonial era. DIALOGUE In a Broken, Connected World points toward the hope that greater mutual understanding can lead to a more peaceful world. After the terrible attacks on 9/11 author John Bromell began his journey by finding Osama bin Laden's hideaway only a few miles away from the final battle at Tora Bora through careful research, and he continued it by engaging in a global dialogue that illustrates the very sources of conflict which are polarizing our world.
