You will be blind to how the greatest civilization ever created is slowly being erased and replaced. And you will fail to appreciate the Judeo-Christian faith, and the culture it built, that gave the world liberty, dignity, and order. In Islam, Israel and the West, Danny Burmawi makes sure you get Islam right. Writing as a former Muslim who left the Middle East for freedom in the West, Burmawi exposes what Islam truly is: not simply a private religion, ...

In Trump: America's First Zionist President, the author investigates Trump's endgame with Israel — and Trump's deep relationship with Christian Zionists.

What would the Israeli-Palestinian conflict look like today if the Roman Emperor Hadrian hadn’t changed the name of the Roman province of Judaea to Syria-Palaestina in 136 AD? The answer is indisputable: there would be no Israeli-Palestinian conflict because there wouldn’t be a people group called Palestinians! The only reason why the Arabs who lived in the land started calling themselves Palestinians in the mid-1800s was because the land had been called Palestine since Roman times by the empires that occupied it. But prior to the Third Jewish-Roman War (132-136 AD), it was called Judea...

The Israel-Palestine "conflict" is typically understood to be a clash between two ethnic groups—Arabs and Jews—inhabiting the same land. Thomas Suárez digs deep below these preconceptions and their supporting "narratives" to expose something starkly different: The violent take-over of Palestine by a European racial-nationalist settler movement, Zionism, using terror to assert by force a claim to the land that has no legal or moral basis.

What remains of the theories we use to understand our world? With lyrical and lucid fury, Hamid Dabashi exposes the racist roots of Western philosophy, demanding that listeners overcome its pernicious phantom of relevance.

Two-time Pulitzer Prize - winning historian Barbara Tuchman explores the complex relationship of Britain to Palestine that led to the founding of the modern Jewish state - and to many of the problems that plague the Middle East today.

Drawing on a wealth of untapped archival materials and the reports of generations of family members - mayors, judges, scholars, diplomats, and journalists - The Hundred Years' War on Palestine upends accepted interpretations of the conflict, which tend, at best, to describe a tragic clash between two peoples with claims to the same territory. Instead, Khalidi traces a hundred years of colonial war on the Palestinians, waged first by the Zionist movement and then Israel, but backed by Britain and the United States, the great powers of the age.

Jerusalem is the universal city, the capital of two peoples, the shrine of three faiths; it is the prize of empires, the site of Judgement Day and the battlefield of today’s clash of civilizations. From King David to Barack Obama, from the birth of Judaism, Christianity and Islam to the...

In Goliath, New York Times best-selling author Max Blumenthal takes us on a journey through the badlands and high roads of Israel-Palestine, painting a startling portrait of Israeli society under the siege of increasingly authoritarian politics as the occupation of the Palestinians deepens. Beginning with the national elections carried out during Israel's war on Gaza in 2008/9, which brought into power the country's most right-wing government to date, Blumenthal tells the story of Israel in the wake of the collapse of the Oslo peace process.

When we picture the first Advent, we see Mary and Joseph huddled by a manger. We picture Gabriel, magi, and shepherds tending their flocks. A shining star against a midnight sky. But this harmonized version has lifted the Advent story out of its context--those who experienced the first Advent had to travel through great darkness to reach the hope that shining star announced. Trusted scholar and community organizer Kelley Nikondeha takes us back, to where the landscape of Palestine is once again the geographic, socioeconomic, and political backdrop for the Advent story.

For millennia Muslims have claimed they are an Abrahamic faith through Ishmael, Abraham’s first son, and therefore are not only descendants of Abraham, but are the only legitimate and superior ones among the Jews and Christians who also claim the same inheritance. However, what is the truth? The only true historical record among sacred script about Abraham or Ishmael is in the Bible—the Hebrew Bible to be exact, in the Book of Genesis. This sacred book was written by Moses around 1440-1400 BC and details the birth of Abraham (nee Abram) and his two sons, Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 12-27...
