Israel at the half-century mark is one of the great success stories of our time. Now, as the Jewish State enters the twenty-first century, comes a new, thoroughly revised edition of Benjamin Netanyahu's acclaimed A Place Among the Nations, updated to reflect both recent developments and Netanyahu's unique vantage point.
A Durable Peace
We live in a time of intense geopolitical change. Communism, fascism, and other "isms" are crumbling into dust. But Zionism, the national liberation movement of the Jewish people, has triumphantly endured. What is the secret of that endurance-and what is the prognosis for its continued success? From the rise of Zionism to the latest peace initiatives, Benjamin Netanyahu traces the origins, history, and politics of Israel's relationship with the Arab world and the West. He exposes some of the most common-and often shocking-misrepresentations and myths about Arab-Israeli issues, replacing them with facts. And he explores the themes that have shaped his vision of Israel and its position in the world:
-What is the foundation of the Jewish claim to the land of Israel?
-What is the real source of conflict between Arabs and Israelis?
-How has the West both contributed to and jeopardized Israel's security throughout the decades?
-How have Arab groups used warfare to achieve what might have been otherwise unattainable ends?
-Why is the status of the West Bank, as well as Gaza and the Golan Heights, so crucial to Israel?
-Why is any hope for peace in the Middle East linked to a clear recognition of Israel's right to exist?
-Even with the collapse of the Soviet Union, why is a strong Israel essential to the stability of the world?
Netanyahu writes as an Israeli who wishes to see a secure Israel at peace with its neighbors. But for this to happen the battle for truth must be won. Closely reasoned, meticulously documented, and often shattering in its revelations, A Durable Peace, sheds welcome light on the Middle East debate. It is a most fitting tribute to Israel today.
