The Palestinian Delusion

The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process

De: Robert Spencer

Narrado por: David Colacci

Every new American president has a plan to bring about peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians, and every one fails. Every "peace process" has failed in its primary objective: to establish a stable and lasting accord between the two parties, such that they can live together side-by-side in friendship rather than enmity. But why? And what can be done instead?

The Palestinian Delusion is unique in situating the Israeli/Palestinian conflict within the context of the global jihad that has found renewed impetus in the latter portion of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. Briskly recounting the tumultuous history of the "peace process", Robert Spencer demonstrates that the determination of diplomats, policymakers, and negotiators to ignore this aspect of the conflict has led the Israelis, the Palestinians, and the world down numerous blind alleys. This has often only exacerbated, rather than healed, this conflict.

The Palestinian Delusion offers a general overview of the Zionist settlement of Palestine, the establishment of the State of Israel, and the Arab Muslim reaction to these events. It explores the dramatic and little-known history of the various peace efforts-showing how and why they invariably broke down or failed to be implemented fully.

Great book

He hit almost all the right points a truly must read to understand what Israel and the world is really up against.

Reality

I am an Arab and I can confirm that this book hits the reality! Yes! Jihad and peace can’t exist together. They teach children in our countries to hate Jews… the west as well ! It’s an eternal struggle that will last till the end of days. Mosques breachers repeat such things every Friday! It’s astonishing how most people in the west are oblivious to this! There will be no peace! Israel needs to be strong enough to defend itself and stop giving concessions!

Most factual and historical book I’ve ever read

As usual, Robert Spencer basis his books on historical facts. He hits the nail on the head with this book. Sad that the Palestinians don’t want peace but to drive the Israelis out of their ancestral homeland. Jerusalem is not even mentioned once in the Quran so why is it so important to them? Their third holiest site? Jews have ONE holy site. That is the land of Israel, for now and forever.

Background to the conflict

Clarified many misconceptions about the dispute and the need for urgent de radicalisation of the population

A Comprehensive Analysis of alleged Palestinian Contentions and Claims.

Fantastic and well researched book. A clear exposure of fallacies in pro Palestinian arguments. I would love to see a counter argument to this book. However the events of October 7, 2023 have merely reinforced and reconfirmed the issues presented in this book. Excellent book and highly recommended.
