Inspired by the documentary, "Birth of a Conflict", this non-fiction book is a summary of events that led up to the Jewish Palestinians regaining their land which was spoken about some 3,000 years ago by King David of The Bible. A must-listen for every person engaged in factual discussions today about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Dalrymple contends that the nature of the kingdom of God contrasts the kingdoms of the world in that the kingdom of God manifests power through love (hence, the cross) whereas the kingdoms of the world manifest power through violence. In light of this observation, the question now becomes, “What does this mean when it comes to war, especially war in the Middle East?”

One night in autumn 1944, a gunshot echoes through the alleyways of a small town in occupied Poland. An SS officer is shot dead by a young Polish Jew, Margarita Ejzenstain. In retaliation his commander orders the execution of 37 Poles - one for every year of the dead man's life. First hidden by a German couple, Margarita must then flee the brutal advance of the Soviet army with her newborn baby. So begins a thrilling panorama of intermingled destinies and events that reverberate from that single act of defiance.

Con una población de alrededor de 7,59 millones de habitantes, la mayoría de los cuales son judíos, Israel es el único Estado judío del mundo. Desde su fundación en 1948, las fronteras de Israel e incluso el derecho a existir del propio Estado, han estado sujeto a controversias, especialmente entre sus vecinos árabes.

Este libro reconstruye una de las historias nacionales más debatidas, la de un Estado que apela al más remoto de los tiempos, el del Antiguo Testamento, como una de sus fuentes de legitimación. Para dar cuenta de ello, el autor se remonta al pasado del pueblo judío en las tierras bíblicas y...

Access to water has played a pivotal role in the Israel-Palestine dispute. Israel has diverted the River Jordan via pipes and canals to build a successful modern state. But this has been at the expense of the region's cohabitants. Gaza is now so water-stressed that the United Nations has warned it could soon become uninhabitable; its traditional water source has been ruined by years of over-extraction and mismanagement, the effects exacerbated by years of crippling blockade.

Three people living in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Jerusalem embark on distinct journeys that converge at "the file"; their efforts to admit Palestine to the Olympics in the early 20th century. Their pivotal roles in history have been purposely omitted from official record, kept secret, or forgotten. Why? Because of the "Nazi Olympics" in 1936 in Berlin. And because of the death in 1972 of eleven Israeli Olympic athletes in the Munich Massacre. This book narrates the previously untold history of a Palestine Olympic Committee recognized before the creation of the State of Israel in 1948.

L’opportunité de revenir sur les tragiques et cruels évènements qui ont ébranlé Israël et ses valeurs fondamentales. Il s’agit de plonger dans les racines de ces évènements, ainsi que dans la vie quotidienne mais aussi dans l’histoire politico-militaire du peuple Israéliens depuis 75 ans. La nouvelle guerre d’Israël est un plaidoyer pour un Tsahal, lui aussi paradoxal, armée composée de soldats et d’officiers brillants et patriotiques, mais dirigée par des hommes et des généraux davantage préoccupés par leur propre avenir politique, ce qui fait de Tsahal un état dans l’état depuis toujours.

Born in Battle, Blood, and Fire. Israel has reveled in terrorising its neighbours. 75 years of conflict and bloodshed and it has never in all that time forsaken its kin:-War and Terror. Within hours of the launch of the Al Aqsa Flood, the Israeli propaganda machine -the Hasbara - sprung into action. Its purpose; churn out lies to justify the unjustifiable - the bombing of hospitals, homes, and schools. The wholesale slaughter of civilians, women, and children by indiscriminate bombing is not enough, so lay siege to Gazam so those Palestinians they can not kill will starve, parch to death, ...

If you are a college student in the United States, you have likely seen or participated in protests against Israel. Perhaps you’ve marched and demanded that your university stop being “complicit in genocide” or cut ties with the (world’s only, apparently) “white settler colonialist entity,” and the like. Perhaps you’ve abused your Jewish classmates over this issue, as nearly three in four Jewish college students reported in 2023.

"We read each name of the 15,613 children who had been killed in Gaza. We began at 10 a.m., and by 3 p.m. we hadn't even reached the five-year-olds.

In Don't Look Away, award-winning Canadian journalist Jorah Kai confronts head-on one of the most devastating humanitarian crises of our time. What began as a personal awakening—sparked by his granddaughter Naomi's birth and the unbearable images of children dying under siege—becomes a searing meditation on conscience, ...

Израиль — маленькая страна глубоко почитаемых религиозных святынь и эклектичной культуры, центр трех мировых религий и оазис, возведенный посреди пустыни. Государство имеет многовековую историю, которая изобилует неожиданными поворотами и драматичными событиями: переселение евреев в Палестину, Первая и Вторая мировая война, конфликт с Египтом и Сирией, военная операция "мир Галилея". "Тель-Авив гуляет, Иерусалим молится, Хайфа работает" — все, что нужно знать о том, как устроено многонациональное государство.

Suppose one day, your son or husband, while serving in the military or working as a journalist, is taken hostage by a terrorist group - and you have no idea whether your loved one is dead or alive. It’s a nightmare scenario. Here for the first time is the story of Ory Slonim, the one man in Israel who, for more than two decades, was known as the “door knocker.” He had been a private Israeli lawyer when he was asked to undertake, on behalf of the Israeli government, secret negotiations to find out the whereabouts of Israeli soldiers who were taken alive.

இருபதாம் நூற்றாண்டில் உலகம் சந்திக்க நேர்ந்த மிகப்பெரிய சிக்கல், இஸ்ரேல்-பாலஸ்தீன் தொடர்பானது. தனித்துவம் மிக்க இரண்டு மதங்களின் வலுவான முரண்பாட்டுப் பின்னணியில் திறமை மிக்க அரசியல்வாதிகளால் முன்னெடுத்துச் செல்லப்பட்ட மக்களின் உணர்வு சார்ந்ததொரு பிரச்னை.

Über kaum ein anderes Land wird in Deutschland so viel geredet und gestritten: Zu Israel hat jeder eine Meinung. Warum ist das so? Wieso hat der Nahostkonflikt eine solche Bedeutung? Und warum ist die Debatte so emotional – und oft so vergiftet? Als Meron Mendel vor zwanzig Jahren nach Deutschland kam, stellte er überrascht fest, welche Bedeutung Israel im öffentlichen Diskurs hat. Nahezu alle, mit denen er sprach, konnten sehr klare Positionen zu Israel und seiner Politik formulieren.

The Olive Branch from Palestine provides a new narrative of the Palestinian effort to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and offers a bold plan for ending this conflict today, a proposal that focuses on Palestinian agency and the power of the Palestinians to bring about the two-state solution, even in the absence of a fully committed Israeli partner.
