Amer H. Hanna
Greetings,
It is not about you and it is
definitely not about me, it is always about doing the right thing in the right
place and at the right time for the sake of our country and our people! ~Amer Hanna Fatuhi
The proposed cross-cultural
communication handbook could have has some far-reaching implications with major
impacts on our lives and businesses.
Those who are quite familiar with
my books and studies, realize that I am an author who strongly believes
that we can build solid bridges between the US and the world in a way that will
significantly benefit both parties. My main focus in the book entitled WINNING IRAQ AGAIN soon to be submitted for publishing is not why we lost Iraq which negatively impacted the USA
for over a decade on every economic and social level, but on how we could win
it back by righting the wrong. This unique handbook could simply act as a tool
in reinstating the US - Iraq alliance as well as paving the way for
both countries’ prosper.
My book is also not just another book about Iraq; rather it is a much needed
recipe for professionally protecting our troops and a successful strategy to
win Iraq through winning back the Iraqi layman, the cornerstone for any lasting
and constructive US - Iraq relationship.
Iraq (ancient Mesopotamia) was the
focal point of the ancient world and the land of firsts, creator of
mankind’s most significant achievements; agriculture, education, medicine,
health system, science, architects, fine arts and literature, you name it. It
is also located in the center of the world’s conflicts, yet it is the starting
point for any future solution. Iraq was and still is, Biblically, the land of
Eden and the birthplace of Father Abraham. Scientifically, it is the land of
order out of chaos as well as the land for peace, beauty, and prosperity.
