The Question of Palestine

In this book, Edward W. Said provides a rigorous and passionate analysis of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

He traces the fatal collision between the two peoples in the Middle East, highlighting the impact of Zionism and Western colonialism on the Palestinian people.

Said updates his work to include significant events such as the Israeli invasion of Lebanon, the intifada, the Gulf War, and the ongoing Middle East peace initiatives.

He argues for the recognition of Palestinian identity and self-determination, emphasizing the need for a peaceful coexistence between Israelis and Palestinians.

The book is grounded in historical and political context, drawing heavily from Western and Zionist sources to present a balanced yet partisan view of the Palestinian narrative.
