A groundbreaking revision that deserves to reframe the entire debate . . . It soars.\"-The New York Times Book Review\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn The Accidental Empire, Gershom Gorenberg examines the strange birth of the settler movement in the ten years following the Six-Day War and finds that it was as much the child of Labor Party socialism as of religious extremism. The giants of Israeli history-Dayan, Meir, Eshkol, Allon-all played major roles in this drama, as did more contemporary figures like Sharon, Rabin, and Peres. Gorenberg also shows how three American presidents turned a blind eye to what was happening in the territories, and reveals their strategic reasons for doing so.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDrawing on newly opened archives and extensive interviews, Gorenberg calls into question much of what we think we know about this issue that continues to haunt the Middle East.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEAN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780805082418\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePackage Dimensions:\u003c\/b\u003e Height: 9 Inches, Length: 5.999988 Inches, Weight: 1.45 Pounds, Width: 1.08 Inches\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gershom Gorenberg","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51862693839155,"sku":"9780805082418","price":32.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0949\/3636\/7411\/files\/17379723482474.jpg?v=1754180970","url":"https:\/\/bookabaloo.com\/products\/the-accidental-empire","provider":"Bookabaloo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
