This comprehensive and detailed book begins with the period immediately following the death of the 'father of Zionism', Theodore Herzl, and provides an important exploration of the historical and political background that colors the Arab-Israeli conflict.
From Chaim Weizmann and Lord Balfour, to Yasser Arafat and Bill Clinton; from the Partition Plan, to the Six Day War, to the Oslo peace process, The Rape of Palestine explores fluctuations and changes in policy during the twentieth century, and their consequences that are unfolding to this day. The result is a thorough analysis - based on historical, biblical and contemporary resources - of a bitter and deadly conflict.
