The book not only traces through the history of the conflict between Israel and Lebanon but looks at the history of wars and revolutions in the Middle East. "The latest attack on Lebanon by America through Israel could be one of the last hiccups of the world capitalist system. This attack could also be considered a successful suicide attempt by this system," says Munno Bhai, commenting on a recently published book on current the Lebanon/Israel war by Lal Khan. The book was published by The Struggle Publications in Lahore. The book discusses not only the current conflict between Lebanon and Israel in detail but also looks at the history of wars and revolutions in the whole region.
