Summary:
"From the expert who understands both sides of one of the world's most complex, controversial conflicts, a modern-day Guide for the Perplexed-a primer on Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian issue. 'Can't you just explain the Israel situation to me? In, like, 10 minutes or less?' This is the question
Daniel
Sokatch
is used to answering on an almost daily basis. As the head of the New Israel Fund, which is dedicated to equality and democracy for all Israelis, not just Jews,
Sokatch
is supremely well-versed on the Israeli conflict. Can We Talk About Israel? is the story of that conflict, and of why so many people feel so strongly about it without actually understanding it very well at all. It is an attempt to grapple with a century-long struggle between two peoples that both perceive themselves as (and indeed are) victims. And it's an attempt to explain why Israel (and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict) inspires such extreme feelings-why it seems like Israel is the answer to "what is wrong with the world" for half the people in it, and 'what is right with the world' for the other half. Complete with engaging illustrations by Christopher Noxon, Can We Talk About Israel? is an easy-to-read yet penetrating and original look at the history and basic contours of one of the most complicated conflicts in the world." --Publisher.
