Israel/Palestine : How to End the War of 1948

In this updated edition of a popular seller, Israeli scholar Reinhart extends her critique to the most recent chapter of this decades-old conflict, exploring the history of the contested region and portraying the barrier as a stark symbol of the conflict itself. She traces the development of the Security Barrier and Israel's new doctrine of |disengagement'|, launched in response to a looming Palestinian-majority population. In this indispensable primer, Reinhart's searing insight illuminates the current conflict and suggests a path toward change.'

This is an eye-opener from a Jewish academic. What she reveals is how the Western media has failed to properly inform us about what has actually been offered to Palestinians since their expulsion from what is now Israel in 1948 and subsequent occupation from 1967 in the Occupied Territories. It especially reveals what an unreasonable deal it actually was that Arafat so "unreasonably" rejected in 2001.
