Summary: From the rise of Zionism to the latest peace initiatives, Benjamin Netanyahu traces the origins, history, and politics of Israel's relationship with the Arab world and the West. He exposes some of the most common - and often shocking - misrepresentations and myths about Arab-Israeli issues, replacing them with facts. And he explores the themes that have shaped his vision of Israel and its position in the world: What is the foundation of the Jewish claim to the land of Israel? What is the real source of conflict between Arabs and Israelis? How has the West both contributed to and jeopardized Israel's security throughout the decades? How have Arab groups used warfare to achieve what might have been otherwise unattainable ends?

From the rise of Zionism to the latest peace initiatives, Benjamin Netanyahu traces the origins, history, and politics of Israel's relationship with the Arab world and the West.

And he explores the themes that have shaped his vision of Israel and its position in the world: What is the foundation of the Jewish claim to the land of Israel? What is the real source of conflict between Arabs and Israelis? How has the West both contributed to and jeopardized Israel's security throughout the decades?
