The Western media paint Palestinian resistance against Israeli
occupation as exclusively violent: armed resistance, suicide
bombings, and rocket attacks. In reality these methods are the
exception to what is a peaceful and creative resistance movement.
In this fascinating book, Dr Mazin Qumsiyeh synthesizes data from
hundreds of original sources to provide the most comprehensive
study of civil resistance in Palestine. The book contains hundreds
of stories of the heroic and highly innovative methods of
resistance employed by the Palestinians over more than 100 years.
The author also analyzes the successes, failures, missed
opportunities and challenges facing ordinary Palestinians as they
struggle for freedom against incredible odds. This is the only book
to critically and comparatively study the uprisings of 1920-21,
1929, 1936-9, 1970s, 1987-1991 and 2000-2006. The compelling human
stories told in this book will inspire people of all faiths and
political backgrounds to chart a better and more informed direction
for a future of peace with justice.
