Publisher Description: These essays are an urgent and passionate intervention by Israeli citizens challenging the continued occupation of Palestinian territory and the failed policies of Ariel Sharon's government. Against a backdrop of increasing violence on both sides, the book presents a broad range of dissenting voices that articulate practical, legal and moral objections to the occupation. Written from within the throes of the unfolding tragedy, it incldues contributions from journalists, novelists, activists, military reservists and high-profile international figures such as Daniel Barenboim, who aim to challenge perceptions of public opinion in Israel and the outlook for peace in the Middle East. |
