Yair Hirschfeld, and the historian and former Haaretz journalist Ron Pundak. Three PLO officials were there, led by Arafat’s closest economic aide, Abu Ala’a. Though both of the Israelis were friends of Yossi Beilin, a protégé of Peres and our deputy foreign minister, even Peres...
German government released them to meet the demands of the hijackers of a Lufthansa airliner the following month. Added to Israeli public’s shock over the massacre, there was anger at having to watch the murderers go free. In the weeks afterwards, I got occasional hints that a s...
/ BARAK / 143 were a regional superpower, with a military as effective as any in the world, and a high-tech economic sector justifiably compared to Silicon Valley. Every few weeks, Bibi, Lieberman and I would meet for a wide-ranging discussion on the patio of the Prime Minister...
responsibility,” I said. “Both of our peoples have paid a heavy price. The time has come to find a way to solve this.” In the half hour we spent together later, I could see that, physically, the Fatah leader from Karameh was not just older. He had a frailty about him. His skin s...
Chapter One I am an Israeli, but also a Palestinian. I was born in February 1942 in British- ruled Palestine on a fledgling kibbutz: a cluster of wood-and-tarpaper huts amid a few orange groves and vegetable fields and chicken coops. It was just across the road from an Arab vill...
