Soviet Jewish Aliyah 1989-92 provides new insights into a period of
fundamental change in Israel and the Middle East. It explains how
the Israeli government failed to effectively handle the integration
of new emigres from the Soviet Union, and how it alienated
traditional Likud supporters among Oriental Jews in Israel. Clive
Jones's argument is that, by placing its ideological commitment to
the retention of the West Bank above other priorities, the Likud
leadership made itself beholden to the United States for financial
assistance which was then denied. The resulting fundamental change
in the composition and orientation of the Israeli political
leadership has had a major influence on the course of the
Arab-Israeli peace process.
