Rushing to Self-Perdition: Israelis Naively Tolerating Domestic Subversion of Their Arab Policies (in English)
Synopsis "Rushing to Self-Perdition: Israelis Naively Tolerating Domestic Subversion of Their Arab Policies (in English)"
Rushing to Self-Perdition rings the alarm on the naivete of the Israeli and Western world, which has been numbed by peaceful and soothing Arab declarations, both domestically and internationally.This has left them naively rushing to share power with Israel's sworn enemies, both inside Israel and outside of it, while letting down their defenses in spite of the continued Arab and Muslim denial and rejection of the idea of a Jewish state, and of Zionism as the foundational principle of Israel's birth.The 20 percent substantial Arab-Palestinian minority in Israel declares insistently that it is only concerned with its own people's interest and safety, and could not care less about the welfare of Israel.They align with the hostile attitudes of the Palestinian people, rather than with their state of Israel, and still declare that they would have nothing to do with Israelis who pursue the maintenance of a Jewish and Zionist majority of their country. They would conversely continue to press for de-Judaization and de-Zionization of the country, while still expecting naïve Israelis to link up and share power with them.(About the Author)Raphael Israeli has taught Islamic, Chinese, and Middle Eastern history at Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
