Why Israel? The Anatomy of Zionist Apartheid : a South African Perspective
by Suraya Dadoo, Firoz Osman & a foreword by Ronnie Kasrils
Published by Porcupine Press, 2015, hardcover, illustrated, index, 606 pages, condition: new.
Israels military occupation of Palestine is horrifically reminiscent of South Africas Apartheid past. Yet, pro-Israel apologists are shocked that the Zionist entity is being compared to Apartheid South Africa. In response, Zionists ask Why Israel?
South African activists, Suraya Dadoo and Firoz Osman answer that question. They examine how and why Apartheid applies to the situation in Palestine by using expert academic analysis, commentaries, articles, and blogs of well-known and highly-respected activists and human rights organisations, as well as reports from NGOs with extensive on-the-ground experience in the region.
The result is a comprehensive and easy-to-understand investigation into Israels colonization of Palestine, and its corrupting influence on the world. In a pioneering contribution, they also reveal how the South African Zionist lobby has been trying extend its sphere of influence within government and the media in South Africa.
Why Israel? is essential reading for high school and university students, academics, journalists, researchers, and Palestinian solidarity activists anyone wanting to fully understand the harsh contemporary realities of Apartheid Israel's oppressive occupation of Palestine.
One of the best books I have read on the subject. Very clear lines of comparison between Apartheid SA and Apartheid Israel. No human deserves the treatment the people of Palestine are going through while the International community is sitting out there still discussing whether Palestinian human rights are being violated or not. All the myths about the decades long crisis busted with validated facts including those on the PLO, PA, Hamas, Fatah, IDF, anti-Semitism, Israel on the map of the world, international community involvement in the crisis. Lists the biased media, services, companies, nations and people besides providing with all the legitimate links to follow for the real information.
If you have doubts or are still on the wrong side of history, read the book before the map of the world is changed for good and we are deprived of the truth.
