Filastin / Israel : Salam am Fasi 'Unsuriفلسطين / إسرائيل: سلام أم فصل عنصري

Translated to Arabic, 'Palestine/Israel: Peace or Apartheid: Prospects for Resolving the Conflict', by Palestinian researcher and writer, Marwan Bishara (1959-). With translation of Omar al-Ayyubi. Post 9/11 updated edition of the author's incisive analysis on the Palestinian problem after the Oslo Peace negotiations, the settlements, and the future.

Marwan Bishara shows how the asymmetry of power between Palestinians and Israelis was ignored by patrons of the Oslo 'peace process' - notably the United States. The ill-conceived transition process degenerated into the fragmented and dependent apartheid statelet that exists today in the West Bank and Gaza. The Oslo process was in fact doomed from the start. The seven accords that have been signed have produced seven years of prosperity for Israelis, and seven years of collapsing economy and increasingly impossible living conditions for Palestinians.
