Commentary/Reviews

These three wide-ranging, highly readable,

and extremely well-

informed volumes

are a real gem that should be read

by every

politically- and historically minded

seeker of truth, justice, and

enduring

peace in historical Palestine."

Journal of Palestine Studies

(JPS 165), 2012

“In this extraordinary book, Alan Hart has succeeded in elucidating for us the

immediate

and

long

term dangers involved in the unconditional Western support for

Zionism and its

oppressive

policies against the Palestinians. The author provides us

with a chilling

exposure

of how this

embrace developed and continues to endanger the

Jewish

existence

and fuels

the

anti-

Semitism that refuses to disappear. Motivated by

a genuine

concern for

peace in

Israel

and

Palestine and beyond in the world at large,

Alan Hart has

written not

only a strong

indictment of

Zionism, based on both research

and personal

experience, but

also provided us

with a charter

for a better future.”

 ILAN PAPPE

Leading Israeli revisionist historican, author of

The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine

"I hope that all who are concerned about the troubles of the Middle East will read this

book.

immensely readable and a magnificent piece of work which reflects Alan

Hart’s

close

relationship with Israeli and Palestinian leaders. We are in terrible trouble

in the

Middle

East.

The

book explains how we got here and how we could move

forward. The

tragedy is

hurting

Palestinians, Israelis and the rest of the world. All who

wish to engage

in finding a

way

forward

will be helped by reading this book."

 CLARE SHORT, MP-UK and International Development Secretary in Tony Blair's

government

until her resignation over Iraq

Alan Hart's new books about Zionism and about the Israeli-Palestinian, Israeli-Arab,

and

now

the

Israeli-Muslim conflicts are, taken together, remarkably important and

timely.

His

unique

experiences and personal relationships make it possible for him to

connect,

and

maybe even

more notably to correct, the historical dots in a uniquely

comprehensive

way.

Doing so as a

seasoned journalist as well as a passionate

advocate of true peace

and

real justice makes

Hart's trilogy of books covering 1948 to

the present nothing less

than

extraordinary. Taken

together they represent a

monumental accomplishment of epic

proportions.

If only

responsible government

officials around the world, especially in

Washington, would read and

ponder these

books, take profound note of Hart's

conclusions, and even at this very late date

act

before it is completely too late.

- Mark Bruzonsky

Hart’s readable account of history, his obviously erudite analysis and his ability in

bringing

the

factual conflict to life on the page ensures the reader's interest is

unwavering

throughout. His

passion and empathy with both sides is apparent. For the

Jews, the

‘unspeakable fear’ of

another Holocaust due to Zionist manipulation and

tyranny; and for

the Arabs and Muslims,

the

anger and humiliation they are feeling

every day that Palestine

is being torn apart.

 Samira Quraishy, researcher, Islamic Human Rights Commission

"Alan Hart in his chillingly revealing and very readable account of the intrigues of the

Zionist

political development has made a tremendously valuable contribution ."

 RABBI AHRON COHEN

"These two volumes are a vital exposition of Zionist history and its interface with

diplomacy

and the Israel-Arab conflict, up until the assassination of President

Kennedy.

Alan Hart

promises another volume, perhaps two, and one looks forward to

their

publication.... an

essential understanding of what happened in the struggle for

Israel-

Palestine and of the

role

of Zionism in this sad story."

"The scope is immense, but leavened by Hart's conversational writing style and his

years

personal experiences and insider observations. Even the most obsessive

readers on

this

topic will learn much in its pages. At a book promotion gathering in a

home in

Brooklyn in

June, Hart said he wrote with two goals in mind: to contribute to

justice for the

Palestinians

and to stop anti-Semitism. Hart is in earnest about the

latter..."

AUTHOR

Alan Hart is a former BBC Panorama and ITN Middle East

correspondent with a vast first-

hand

knowledge

of the subject. He

knew, and interviewed, many of the main players in the

Israel-

Palestine conflict on all

sides (Golda Meir, Yasser Arafat and other

PLO leaders,

Moshe

Dayan,

Shimon Peres, Nasser, King

Hussein of Jordan, George Habash, King

Feisal - the list

is long).

He also participated at a leadership

level in the secret politics of

the

search for peace

in the

Middle East (as an intermediary

between

rafat

and Peres

when it

was presumed

Peres was

headed for leadership) His first book

Arafat, Terrorist or

Peacemaker?

was

published by

Sidgwick & Jackson in 1984 and

subsequently in several

updated

editions over

a decade. In

the

early 1970s, his independent production company

produced the

first ever

documentary on

true dimensions of global poverty and

its

implications for all. The film, Five

Minutes To

Midnight,

had its

world premiere at the

opening of the 7th Special Session of the

UN General Assembly

(called to discuss the

need for a New

World Economic Order), and

was

shown on television in

many

Western

countries, was versioned for schools and became

standard work of reference.

For that

effort

Alan was credited with

having played a leading

role

in getting the North-South

issue

on to

the agenda for

public debate.

SYNOPSIS

This is the second volume in the series,

ZIONISM: The Real Enemy of the Jews

, a

monumental

history of

Zionism and the Israel-Palestine conflict by a seasoned reporter

who

interviewed and

was in the good

graces of the major players on all sides. Alan Hart

has given

an honest

expression of the needs, motives

and dilemmas

faced by all parties.

David Becomes Goliath

reveals in well-documented detail starting from 1948 how the

assertion

that Israel

has lived in constant danger of annihilation,

of the “driving into the

sea”

its Jews, is

little more than

Zionist propaganda. What really was the case, after

Israel

unilaterally declared

itself to be in existence,

was that the Arab armies did not have

the

ability—

neither the numbers

nor the weapons—to defeat Israel’

s forces. Despite

some

stupid

Arab

rhetoric to the contrary—a

propaganda gift for Zionism of which it has

made

extensive and

ongoing use—the Arab regimes

had no intention of even trying to

destroy

Israel. They

were

quickly at one with Zionism and the

major powers in wanting the

Palestine

file to remain

closed after

Israel’s first victory on the

battlefield. There was not

supposed to

have been a

regeneration

of Palestinian

nationalism: for

them, Arafat’s real

crime was

making this happen.

Here, too, is the riveting story of how Zionism, assisted by deluded British Prime Minister

Eden

and

America’s hawks, conned the Western world into believing that Eygpt’s

President

Nasser

was an enemy

of the West when actually he was seeking an

accommodation with

Israel from

almost his first days in

power, and wanted more than

anything else a relationship

with America

on equal terms with that of Israel.

Hart also

takes

us inside the struggle of the

first and last

American president, Eisenhower, to

attempt to

contain Zionism, and President

Kennedy’s

unsuccessful attempt to prevent the

Zionist

state acquiring an

atom bomb (an

acquisition still

unadmitted by either the US or

Israel, to

this very day).

But most importantly, Volume II records a turning point: the story of the defeat of reason in

Israel,

with Ben-

Gurion’s replacement

of Israel’s second Prime Minister, Moshe Sharett,

who

October 12, 1955

expressed in his diary this prescient fear for the future in view of

the

ongoing

Zionist expansionism of his

time: “What is our vision on this earth—war to the

end of

generations and life by the sword?”
