Warriors for Jerusalem: The Six Days That Changed the Middle East

Asia

Simon&Schuster

This is a comprehensive summary of U.S. foreign policy towards Palestine and Israel during the second half of the twentieth century. Basing itself on official U.S. documents, it focuses on the United States’ failure to live up to its international commitments concerning Jerusalem, the right of return, U.N. Security Council resolution 242, and Israeli settlements. 
The new second edition of this highly acclaimed book has an updated Epilogue that covers U.S. policy through the Clinton administration and the first eighteen months of the current Bush administration. The Epilogue shows how the U.S. policy bias in favor of Israel and its interpretations of how the Oslo Accord should be implemented inevitably led to the unraveling of the peace process and set the stage for failure at the Camp David negotiations in July 2000.

Fallen Pillars is a concise summary of the dramatic evolution of American policy towards Palestine and Israel over the past half century. It demonstrates how and why this evolution has been almost invariably in a direction closer to Israel, and how this has caused unintended strains and contradictions that, at times, have confused allies, aided enemies, and left many Americans unsure about U.S. policy. Of great interest to scholars, students, and all those interested in U.S. foreign policy, Fallen Pillars is a well-researched, highly readable, and coherent account of American influence in one of the most complex conflicts of our time.

Warriors at Suez: Eisenhower Takes America into the Middle East in 1956

Warriors Against Israel is the concluding volume in Donald Neff's acclaimed trilogy on America's role in Israel's three major wars since its establishment in 1948. This work examines the most violent conflict of all, the 1973 war. It traces how and why the war began, how the superpowers once again nearly came into direct conflict in the Middle East, and how Israel emerged from the war closer than ever to the United States. The events take place between the time Anwar Sadat succeeded Gamal Abdel Nasser in 1970 as Egypt's leader to the end of Henry Kissinger's dramatic shuttle diplomacy in 1975. Between these benchmarks of history there occurred the dramatic growth of the Palestinian guerrilla movement, the terrorist actions that led to the disaster of Black September in Jordan, the oil boycott that brought about the greatest peaceful transfer of wealth in history, and the historic disengagement pacts between Israel and its two most powerful Arab neighbors, Egypt and Syria. The war itself was a classic conflict fought with the latest and most sophisticated conventional weapons. The Egyptian crossing of the Suez Canal was a stunning military achievement, unanticipated by Israel and thought impossible by much of the world. Equally threatening to Israel was Syria's coordinated attack on the Golan Heights which brought Syrian troops to the edge of Israel's Galilee heartland. Only by tenacious, grueling combat did Israel manage to blunt the two-pronged Arab attack and perform its own historic crossing of the canal.
