Secret Channels by Mohamed Heikal
Since the foundation of the state of Israel, the quest for peace in the Middle East has preoccupied the international community. This book tells the behind-the-scenes story of half a century of clandestine Arab-Israeli peace negotiations. The author illuminates Arab attitudes which have often seemed baffling to the outside world. It looks at: why Nasser, the greatest of Arab nationalist leaders, secretly encouraged Jordan's King Hussein to make peace with Israel; why Yasser Arafat supported Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait; why Arafat agreed to the Israeli terms in 1993 which were no better than those that had been on offer for many years; why Islamic fundamentalists tried to wreck the deal; and what the future prospects for peace in the Middle East are?| SKU | Unavailable |
