The Palestine Papers
The
End of the Road?
Edited by Clayton
E. Swisher
Introduction by Dr
Ghada Karmi
About the Book
In January, 2011,
Al-Jazeera television published 1600 pages
of confidential papers and memoranda from
the last five years of peace negotiations
between Israel and the Palestinians.
Over the last ten years, Israel has said
to its people and the world, "There is no
partner for peace." And the
Palestinian Authority has said to its
people, "We will not give up Palestinian
territory or rights." The
Palestinian Papers, when read in their
entirety, show both of these statements to
be false.
This
book, published within three months of the
leaked papers, presents complete texts of
a number of the most important papers,
along with a commentary on why they are so
important to the unfolding events in the
Middle East.
The
issues discussed in confidence in the
papers cover the Israeli illegal
settlements, the Hamas rockets, the
Israeli Wall, the invasion of Gaza, the
rights of Palestinian refugees, and the
move to define Israel as an exclusively
Jewish state - all of them hot topics
which will continue to be relevant in
future peace talks, if they ever resume.
