¿Qué teme Israel de Palestina?

Raja Shehadeh, winner of the 2008 Orwell Prize for Political Writing, a human rights lawyer and the most prominent Palestinian writer today, details the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict: from the creation of the State of Israel in 1948, which triggered the forced displacement of the Palestinian population, creating fractures that continue to erupt violently and tragically today, to the failure of the Oslo Accords, the progressive hardening of the occupation of the Palestinian territories, and the growing fractures in the Israeli political class, for whom a common Palestinian enemy is a useful balm. With elegant prose and devastating observation, offering a lucid and realistic perspective, Shehadeh explains how a significant portion of Israeli society could have accepted the devastation of Gaza and the genocide of the Palestinian population in response to Hamas's terrorist attacks of October 7, 2023. Despite personally witnessing the destruction of his nation and the genocide of his people, Shehadeh argues that Israel and Palestine must collaborate on the path to peace.
