Does the bible justify Zionism? Since the foundation of the Israeli
state in 1948, Torah and tank have become increasingly inseparable,
resulting in the forced expulsion and subjugation of millions of
indigenous Palestinians. Nur Masalha's groundbreaking new book
traces Zionism's evolution from a secular, settler movement in the
late 19th century, to the messianic faith it has become today. He
shows how the biblical language of 'chosen people' and 'promised
land' has been used by many Christian and Jewish Zionists as the
'title deeds' for Israel, justifying ethnic division and violence.
With Edward Said, Masalha argues that a new politics of peace can
only be achieved through a single, democratic state, which replaces
religious zealotry with secular equality.
