Phantoms of the Shah
A U.S. Air Force squadron of F-4 Phantoms is deployed to Iran to fly and train with the Iranian Air Force flying the same jets they had purchased from the U.S. The situation is tense, especially in Tehran, where the radical Muslim factions had grown in power. The Shah was out of the country and applying for asylum in America to treat his cancer. The opposition wanted him returned and they especially wanted the millions of dollars he had accumulated over the years. His government was hanging on by a thread. The flying from Shiraz Air Base in southern Iran was great training for the American pilots, but the situation got tense and it was time to go. Most of the jets got out, but one was left behind with maintenance problems and 14 personnel were left to tend to it and get it released. Brad Mitchell was the pilot tasked to fly the lame bird to Saudi Arabia. The opposition forces overwhelmed the Shiraz military that were friendly to the Shah. The 14 Americans were held hostage. President Carver authorizes a rescue operation, and though not without casualties, the AF personnel and the jet were recovered. The American Embassy in Tehran however, fell hostage to the Muslims as they overthrew their government.

Shah of Shahs
Shah of Shahs depicts the final years of the Shah in Iran, and is a compelling meditation on the nature of revolution and the devastating results of fear.Here, Kapuscinski describes the tyrannical monarch, who, despite his cruel oppression of the Iranian people, sees himself as the father of a nation, who can turn a backward country into a great power - a vain hope that proves a complete failure.Yet even as Iran becomes a 'behemoth of riches' and as the Shah lives like a European billionaire, its people live in a climate of fear, terrorized by the secret police.Told with intense power and feeling, Kapuscinski portrays the inevitable build-up to revolution - a cataclysmic upheaval that delivered Iran into the rule of the Ayatollah Khomeini.

Afghan Napoleon - The Life of Ahmad Shah Massoud
When the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in 1979, the forces of resistance were disparate and divided mujahideen groups, as interested in fighting each other and competing for Western arms as opposing the Russians.The exception was Ahmed Shah Massoud, the military strategist and political operator who solidified the resistance and undermined the Russian occupation by leading its members to a series of defensive victories.Sandy Gall was embedded with Massoud during Soviet offences and reported on the war in Afghanistan for a number of years.He has now written an illuminating biography of this charismatic guerrilla commander, which contains excerpts from the surviving volumes of Massoud's diaries.Massoud's prolific diary-keeping was little known during his lifetime, and his entries detail crucial moments in his life and throw fascinating light on his struggles, both in the resistance and in his personal life.Born into an ostensibly liberalising Afghanistan in the 1960s, Massoud ardently opposed communism and Mohammed Daoud, Afghanistan's puppet leader.He quickly rose to prominence and distinguished himself by coordinating the defence of the Panjshir Valley against repeated Soviet offensives.As the occupation wore on, Massoud became the resistance's unifying force.Massoud's assassination in 2001 presaged the attack on the Twin Towers just two days later and it is widely believed to have been ordered by Osama bin Laden.Forever the underdog in a life dominated by conflict, Massoud's attempts to build political consensus in Afghanistan were ultimately frustrated.Despite that, he is recognised today as a national hero.
