A controversial examination of the internal Israeli debate over the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict from a best-selling Israeli author "A
must for anyone who wants to understand the tectonic forces
underlying Israeli politics."-Rabbi Robert Orkand, Reform Judaism
"An eloquent expression of the distant hope that deeply committed
human beings can stop, inhale deeply, listen, change, and
compromise."-Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review Since the Six-Day War,
Israelis have been entrenched in a national debate over whether to
keep the land they conquered or to return some, if not all, of the
territories to Palestinians. In 2017, best-selling Israeli author
Micah Goodman published a balanced and insightful analysis of the
situation that quickly became one of Israel's most debated books of
the year. Now available in English translation with a new preface
by the author, Catch-67 deftly sheds light on the ideas that have
shaped Israelis' thinking on both sides of the debate, and among
secular and religious Jews about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Contrary to opinions that dominate the discussion, he shows that
the paradox of Israeli political discourse is that both sides are
right in what they affirm-and wrong in what they deny. Although he
concludes that the conflict cannot be solved, Goodman is far from a
pessimist and explores how instead it can be reduced in scope and
danger through limited, practical steps. Through philosophical
critique and political analysis, Goodman builds a creative,
compelling case for pragmatism in a dispute where a comprehensive
solution seems impossible.
