Palestine Hijacked

How Zionism Forged an Apartheid State from River to Sea

De: Thomas Suárez

Narrado por: Curtis Michael Holland

The Israel-Palestine "conflict" is typically understood to be a clash between two ethnic groups—Arabs and Jews—inhabiting the same land. Thomas Suárez digs deep below these preconceptions and their supporting "narratives" to expose something starkly different: The violent take-over of Palestine by a European racial-nationalist settler movement, Zionism, using terror to assert by force a claim to the land that has no legal or moral basis.

Drawing extensively from original source documents, Suárez interweaves secret intelligence reports, newly-declassified military and diplomatic correspondence, and the terrorists' own records boasting of their successes. His shocking account details a litany of Zionist terrorism against anyone in their way—the indigenous Palestinians, the British who had helped establish Zionism, and Jews who opposed the Zionist agenda.

Far from being isolated atrocities by rogue groups, the use of terror was deliberate and sustained, carried out or supported by the same leaders who then established and led the Israeli state. We are still living this history: The book proves that Israel's regime of Apartheid against the Palestinians and the continued expropriation of their country are not the result of complex historical circumstances, but the intended, singular goal of Zionism since its beginning.

Authentic and meticulously evidence based

Like the other reviewer, I agree this is one the best of modern books on the subject.

Most Thorough Research Into Israel’s Crimes Yet

Having read almost all of the major historical works on Palestinian and Israeli history, this book is in my opinion the most thorough in its research into Israel’s crimes, particularly its use of extralegal pre-state terror in the 1930s and 1940s.

Suarez is also a lucid writer with the capacity for powerful moral argumentation, which is subdued until the last part of the conclusion. If there is any drawback to the book it would lie in its recitation of one damn crime after another with minimal commentary and context. But to those of us with some familiarity of Israel’s history of crimes against Palestinians, it is not needed.

Altogether, this book is an extraordinary achievement. Hopefully, there are many more to come.
