About the Book: Following the events of October 7th and the subsequent Gaza invasion, historian Ilan Pappe argues that Israel’s foundations are irrevocably cracked, exposing a country unable to protect its citizens, deeply divided internally, and rapidly becoming a pariah state due to its catastrophic bombing campaigns. Pappe asserts that Israel’s greatest enemy is not Hamas, but its own internal failings. He proposes a radical path toward reconciliation, rooted in restorative justice and decolonisation, which includes the return of refugees, ending illegal settlements, and building strong bridges with the Arab world to secure a future of peace, not endless war.
