Palestinians in Israel by Ben White
Israel's insistence on declaring itself a Jewish state leads to discrimination, segregation and a guarantee of continued conflict
'This book debunks convincingly and forcefully the myth of Israel being 'the only democracy' in the Middle East' -- ProfIlan Pappe, author of The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine
'Essential reading to understand why there can never be peace unless Palestinian citizens of Israel are granted full equality' -- li Abunimah, Co-founder of Electronic Intifada, author of 'One Country' (2007)
'A holistic view of the Palestine/Israel problem - then goes beyond it to point towards its only just and hopeful solution. A significant and timely contribution to the political discourse so necessary today' -- Ahdaf Soueif, author of Booker Prize-shortlisted The Map of Love
'With surgical precision, a wealth of research and sharp analytical intellect, White astutely exposes the oxymoron inherent in the definition of Israel as a 'Jewish and democratic' state and presents a compelling case for holding Israel accountable for committing the crime of apartheid, as defined by the UN' -- Omar Barghouti, human rights activist and author
'It is rare to find a book covering such a complex, crucial topic that states its case so succinctly, yet so comprehensively and eloquently' -- Sally Bland, Jordan Times
