Palestinians

Mehr zum Buch

Recent events have dealt the Palestinians a series of major blows that have discredited their leaders & apparently sidelined their cause in the shifting sands of Middle Eastern politics. But as the authors argue, the Palestinians may have reached a breakthrough in their long-standing impasse with Israel, as a new generation of leaders may be willing to abandon anti-Zionism.
