Downfall is a scream rebelling against injustice. The torn Middle East shouts for peace. Downfall deals with the arrogance of power now trying to control the world without resorting to international legitimateness. The novel exposes the western plot (the Arab Spring) against the Middle East aiming at dividing it into factions and sects living in small sectors without borders so that the west could draw the map of the Middle East in accordance with its geostrategic needs and objectives. This vicious plan has led to millions of deaths, displacements and refugees scattered on the borders of foreign countries.

The events of the novel are played out by Omar, the Egyptian commando who was assigned later as the Egyptian ambassador to the United States and Elizabeth, the daughter of the president of the United States, a human rights activist, who shared with Omar a sincere love and the fight for establishing peace and justice in a torn world.
