For decades there has been a continuing effort by Israelis to cover up their expulsion of the 750,000 refugees who fled their homes during the 1948 war. Using newly discovered material from archives in the United States, Europe and Israel as well as the documented testimony of the Jewish veterans, Michael Palumbo reveals how the Zionists carried out Ben-Gurion's plan to "expel the Arabs and take their place". Using reports from American, French, Belgian and Swedish observers who witnessed the gunpoint expulsions of innocent Arab ciilians, Palumbo documents the numerous massacres reported by UN personnel as well as Israeli veterans. The Zionist myth that the slaughter of two hundred and fifty Arab civilians at Deir Yassin was only an isloated incident is so conclusively destroyed that there can no longer be any doubt that the expulsion of the Palestinians was the ineveitable result of Zionist policy.

Hala Deeb Jabbour considers her novel, A Woman of Nazareth a mission that stems from her belief that a lasting peace in the Middle East will only come when both sides understand the concerns of the other. A Woman of Nazareth seeks to air out the Palestinian side of the saga and validate the Palestinian people's emotions. Amal, the heroine, is a woman steeped in Middle Eastern tradition seeking to escape to forge a better life for herself and her children. Amal figuratively portrays the Palestinian people-encouraging them to break with the tradition of hate and to overcome the fear of moving forward toward peace in order to create a better life for themselves and their children. It is a moving and captivating novel, a page-turner, which leaves the reader with a better understanding of the tangled web of the Middle East. Learn more at www.zaribah.com

Besieged: A Doctor's Story of Life and Death in Beirut

From October 1985 until January 1988, warring factions used everything from heavy artillery to sniper fire, pounded the tiny Palestinian refugee camp in West Beirut known as Shatila. Besieged is an account of simple courage and ingenuity, of human dignity in circumstances of war and deprivation, of ordinary people doing extraordinary things. During five months of fierce fighting, Dr. Giannou and his medical team performed hundreds of operations and 650 people who were seriously injured were saved.
