'Questioning History': The verdict of history is rarely clear and undisputed. In this series, significant events and controversial personalities of recent history are examined in the light of the debates and questions they have generated.
'The Arab-Israeli Conflict': Since the formation of Israel in 1948, when over half the Palestinian Arabs in former Palestine were forced to leave their homes, the Jewish state of Israel and most of its Arab neighbours have been enemies. With Israelis living in fear of terrorist attack, and 3 million Palestinians suffering under military occupation, Arab-Israeli peace negotiations have repeatedly stalled. This book raises vital questions about this tragic conflict.
Features:
- Should Palestinian refugees have the right to return to Israel?
- Is it possible to reconcile security for Israelis with justice for Palestinians?
- How can the cycle of Palestinian terrorist attacks and Israeli military reprisals be broken?
