Michael Oren book on US-Middle East relations to be translated into Arabic

A recent book on US-Middle East relations written by Israeli ambassador to the US, Michael Oren, will be translated into Arabic by an Abu Dhabi publisher. Oren, a historian by training, first penned the best-selling "Power, Faith and Fantasy" in 2007 before the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage decided to translate it this year. "The translation of books by Israeli scholars into Arabic is always an excellent means of deepening understanding between Israel and its neighboring countries," the embassy said in a statement.
