Description

The Palestine Papers: A Rare Look at Middle East Peace Talks In January 2011, Al-Jazeera television published 1,600 pages of confidential papers and memoranda from the last five years of peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians. This book presents complete texts of a number of these important papers, along with an analysis that reveals a complex and often unproductive Palestine-Israeli peace process. The leaked documents provide a unique insight into the inner workings of Middle East peace talks, including revealing off-the-record remarks made by key players. Issues discussed include the Israeli illegal settlements, the rights of Palestinian refugees, and the move to define Israel as an exclusively Jewish state. For the first time, it is possible to compare public utterances with confidential meetings and memoranda. This book offers a rare, unfiltered look at a current topic as it unfolds, allowing readers to form their own opinions about the Palestine-Israeli peace process.
