Publisher's Summary

Every new American president has a plan to bring about peace between the Israelis and the Palestinians, and every one fails. Every "peace process" has failed in its primary objective: to establish a stable and lasting accord between the two parties, such that they can live together side-by-side in friendship rather than enmity. But why? And what can be done instead?

The Palestinian Delusion is unique in situating the Israeli/Palestinian conflict within the context of the global jihad that has found renewed impetus in the latter portion of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st. Briskly recounting the tumultuous history of the "peace process", Robert Spencer demonstrates that the determination of diplomats, policymakers, and negotiators to ignore this aspect of the conflict has led the Israelis, the Palestinians, and the world down numerous blind alleys. This has often only exacerbated, rather than healed, this conflict.

The Palestinian Delusion offers a general overview of the Zionist settlement of Palestine, the establishment of the State of Israel, and the Arab Muslim reaction to these events. It explores the dramatic and little-known history of the various peace efforts-showing how and why they invariably broke down or failed to be implemented fully.

One-sided

Riddled with derisive anti-muslim top spin and pro-Israel righteousness. A master class in historical cherry-picking

Biased

I wanted to read books from both sides to form my own opinion. This book was so biased and racist that it actually pushed me to its counter argument! The author seems too blinded by hate to be trusted.

Interesting content

It’s a singular perspective however good to hear and is very informative. The most annoying thing is the reader who has a jeering tone, a mocking wry tone. I really wondered at some point if it was a robot on jeering mode. So very irksome. I can’t stand this reader.

Statements of historical facts prior to October 7

I liked the historical detail in context of 2 totally opposed cultures. The myth of 2 state solution stands out for me and the diametrically opposite cultural value system. The West demonstrated its anti-Semitism in foolishly permitting Palestinian arabs to hood-wink them for decades

Timely

It’s time that all individuals know about the Jehad of Muslims and their religion/ culture won’t accept peace

The Jewish Case

Yes it is one sided. However given the rest of the world (especially the UN) and it’s anti-semitism I found this book provided clear and valid reasons for why the Palestinian conflict has continued decade after decade.
It has turned me from an avid Obama supporter into an Obama critic. The transgender ideology did part of the job (such a bald faced lie!) and this did the rest.
Having been derisive of Trump I am now open minded. At least Trump knows what a woman is (knowing a person’s sex is important when you want to sexually harass them) and seems like he is fully aware of the lies of the Palestinians and the UN.
This book provides eviddnce that causes one to stop and think…and rethink.

Very well presented

A must to absorb in light of the current climate and the bias in today's media
