Abstract

What Israel Has Done

Said, Edward W. | May 6, 2002 issue

add to cart   close window

The author focuses on the repression of Palestinians by Israel where more than 90 percent of the land is held in trust for the use only of the Jewish people and is a case of disparity and asymmetrical power and systematically flouting international law. The real issue is Israel's utter refusal to accept the sovereign existence of Palestinian people, that is entitled to rights over what Israel Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and most of his supporters consider to be the land of Greater Israel, i.e., the West Bank and Gaza. The author is skeptical about discussions and meetings about peace, which in the present context usually means Palestinians are told to stop resisting Israeli control over their land.
