Title : The Other Side of Israel
Author :Susan Nathan
One of my first purchases in US ....Ordered on Amazon. I had always wanted to read on Israel-Palestine conflict , but the huge academic nature of books kept me away.
This was definitely different.
The author - a Jew raised In UK -- goes to Israel to 'settle down' and is shocked and disappointed at the way Israel functions and discriminates against non-Jews.
The author's first hand experience does help and I am definitely a fan of easy reading.
I personally never understood and appreciated the idea of a state for a religion ....and this book does reinforce my belief.
A MUST read .
There are many new books and publications on the same topic , and I intend catch up on them !!
Not sure if US and other countries will take a stand -- But Obama did propose a return to 1968 (?) - pre-occupation borders recently.
