Der Angriff der Hamas vom 7. Oktober 2023 markiert einen tiefen Einschnitt in der Geschichte Israels. Joseph Croitoru erklärt konzise, wie die Hamas seit 2007 ihre islamistische Herrschaft im Gazastreifen etabliert hat und welche Organisationen und Staaten ihren Terror gegen Israel unterstützen. Sein Augen öffnendes Buch, das auf langjähriger Beobachtung der Hamas basiert, lässt den neuen, schrecklichen Krieg in Israel und Palästina besser verstehen.

In 1973, Israel would face the greatest challenge to its very existence. Egypt and Syria launched massive simultaneous invasions intended to recapture territory occupied by Israel during the Six-Day War. Israel was taken completely by surprise by this attack, launched on the day of one of the most important Jewish holidays, Yom Kippur. Israeli intelligence, which had proved so effective in previous conflicts, failed to provide any warning, and the armed forces of Israel were completely unprepared to face this onslaught on two fronts. This is the story of the Yom Kippur War.

El complejo militar-industrial de Israel utiliza los territorios palestinos ocupados como campo de pruebas de armamento y tecnología de vigilancia que luego exporta por todo el mundo. Durante más de cincuenta años, la ocupación de Cisjordania y Gaza ha proporcionado al Estado israelí una experiencia inestimable en el control de una población "enemiga", perfeccionando cada vez más la arquitectura del control. El periodista Antony Loewenstein expone este asunto, en gran medida oculto, en una investigación global a partir de documentos secretos, entrevistas y reportajes sobre el terreno.

Blending science and technology studies, sociology, and geography with a host of archival material, in-depth interviews, and ethnographies, The Politics of Maps explores how the geographical sciences came to be entangled with the politics, territorial claim-making, and nation-state building of Israel/Palestine.

On the morning of Saturday, October 7, Amir Tibon and his wife were awakened by mortar rounds exploding near their home in Kibbutz Nahal Oz, a progressive Israeli settlement along the Gaza border. Soon, they were holding their two young daughters in the family’s reinforced safe room, urging their children not to cry while they listened to the gunfire from Hamas attackers outside their windows. With his cell phone battery running low, Amir texted his father: “They’re here.”

Nasser Abu Srour grew up in a refugee camp in the West Bank, on the outskirts of Bethlehem. As a child, he played in its shadow and explored the little world within the camp. As he grew older, he began questioning the boundaries that limited his existence. Later, sentenced to life in prison, with no hope of parole, he found himself surrounded by a physical wall. This is the story of how, over thirty years in captivity, he crafted a new definition of freedom. Turning to writings by philosophers as varied as Derrida, Kirkegaard and Freud, he begins to let go of freedom...

Vladimir Jabotinsky (1880–1940) was a man of huge paradoxes and contradictions and has been the most misunderstood of all Zionist politicians—a first-rate novelist, a celebrated Russian journalist, and the founder of the branch of Zionism now headed by Benjamin Netanyahu. This biography, the first in English in nearly two decades, undertakes to answer central questions about Jabotinsky as a writer, a political thinker, and a leader. Hillel Halkin sets aside the stereotypes to which Jabotinsky has been reduced by his would-be followers and detractors alike.

On October 7th, 2023, David-Seth Kirshner woke up excited to celebrate his 50th birthday. Instead of eating cake, Rabbi Kirshner was glued to the news as the horrible attack by Hamas upon innocent Israelis began to unfold. Emotions flooded him from all directions. Anger, rage, surprise, fear, hope, frustration, anxiety, confidence and grief were just some of what inhabited his mind and body.

A new history of the American Jewish relationship with Israel focused on its most urgent and sensitive issue: the question of Palestinian rights.

When the establishment of the State of Israel was announced on May 14, 1948, it seemed to many people that the new nation could not survive for long. The haste with which it was created meant that Israel lacked the infrastructure of government, and its armed forces consisted of little more than a handful of lightly armed former guerilla fighters. Ranged against it were some of the most powerful nations in the Arab world, including Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, and Syria.

The definitive account of the 10/7 attacks through the stories of its victims and the communities they called home. On October 7, 2023—the Sabbath and the final day of the holiday of Sukkot—the Gaza-based terror group Hamas launched an unprecedented assault on the people of Israel. Crashing...

Die Frage, wem das Heilige Land gehört, ist heute aktueller denn je. Die Debatten zu diesem Thema sind oft von Ignoranz und starken Emotionen geprägt, noch immer verstellen Parteilichkeit und Machtinteressen den Blick auf die politische Lage im Nahen Osten. In seinem unentbehrlichen Standardwerk wagt es Michael Wolffsohn, an überkommenen Mythen und Vorurteilen zu rütteln. Umfassend und gut verständlich erklärt er die historischen Wurzeln des Konflikts zwischen Juden und Arabern, der bis in die Gegenwart nichts von seiner Brisanz verloren hat.

Using Szold's copious letters, diaries, and essays, along with other archival documents, Francine Klagsbrun traces Szold's life and legacy with an eye to uncovering the person behind the Zionist icon. She reveals Szold as a complex human being who had to cope with controversy and criticism, a workaholic with an outsized sense of duty, and an idealist who fought for her beliefs even as she questioned her own abilities. With deep insight, Klagsbrun introduces listeners to this extraordinary woman, whose impact on women's lives as well as on education and health systems still resonates.

Since ancient times the promised land has been a place of testing, revival, and fellowship with the God of Israel. God promised His land to the Jewish people as an everlasting possession as part of an eternal covenant He made with their forefather, Abraham. After two exiles and centuries of dispersion, millions of Jewish people have been drawn back to the land—and since the establishment of the modern State of Israel on May 14, 1948, millions of Christians have been welcomed as pilgrims to experience it for themselves.

Израиль — маленькая страна глубоко почитаемых религиозных святынь и эклектичной культуры, центр трех мировых религий и оазис, возведенный посреди пустыни. Государство имеет многовековую историю, которая изобилует неожиданными поворотами и драматичными событиями: переселение евреев в Палестину, Первая и Вторая мировая война, конфликт с Египтом и Сирией, военная операция "мир Галилея". "Тель-Авив гуляет, Иерусалим молится, Хайфа работает" — все, что нужно знать о том, как устроено многонациональное государство.

« Le jour où on écrira l’Histoire, on dira que c’est une femme qui a permis à l’État juif de voir le jour » - David Ben Gourion. Née à Kiev en 1898, Golda Meir fuit avec sa famille la terreur des pogroms et trouve refuge aux États-Unis. En 1921, elle émigre en Palestine avec son mari et s’installe dans un kibboutz. Militante infatigable de la cause sioniste, elle signe la déclaration d’indépendance d’Israël le 14 mai 1948. Ministre du Travail, ministre des Affaires étrangères, secrétaire générale du Parti travailliste, elle est nommée Premier ministre en 1969, à l’âge de 71 ans.

As former vice president of the City of David Foundation, Doron Spielman has guided numerous visitors—including donors, diplomats, professors, celebrities, and American politicians—on a journey into the City of David’s tunnels. While often holding vastly different political views, these visitors agree on one thing: the story of the City of David must be told.

A Genocide Foretold confronts the stark realities of life under siege in Gaza and the heroic effort ordinary Palestinians are waging to resist and survive. Weaving together personal stories, historical context, and unflinching journalism, Chris Hedges provides an intimate portrait of systemic oppression, occupation, and violence.

What kind of political structure might one day enable Israelis and Palestinians to overcome the seemingly interminable cycle of violence and live in peace with one another? For many years, politicians and citizens have called for a two-state solution—two independent states, Israel and Palestine, coexisting side by side. This was Shlomo Sand's view too, but as more settlements were built in the occupied West Bank and millions of Palestinians were forced to live in a situation of de facto apartheid.

"The State of Israel is not actually a country, not a society, not a people—it is a collection of reasons," writes Amos Oz. These reasons struggle and clash with each other, screaming to the heavens, sometimes pulling out a gun in the square. The growing divide is the contemporary Israeli identity: left and right, ultra-Orthodox and secular, Mizrahi and Ashkenazi, veterans and immigrants, socialists and free-market adherents, fanatics and liberals, skeptics and idealists, Palestinians and Jews, the founding fathers and post-modern great-grandchildren.
