<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>A visionary* approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict--one state for two peoples--that is more urgent than ever</b> <p/>It is by now a commonplace that the only way to end the Israeli-Palestinian violence is to divide the territory in two. All efforts at resolving the conflict have come down to haggling over who gets what: Will Israel hand over 90 percent of the West Bank or only 60 percent? Will a Palestinian state include any part of Jerusalem? <p/>Clear-eyed, sharply reasoned, and compassionate, <i>One Country</i> proposes a radical alternative: to revive the neglected idea of one state shared by two peoples. Ali Abunimah shows how the two are by now so intertwined--geographically and economically--that separation cannot lead to the security Israelis need or the rights Palestinians must have. Taking on the objections and taboos that stand in the way of a binational solution, he demonstrates that sharing the territory will bring benefits for all. <p/>The absence of other workable options has only led to ever- greater extremism. It is time, Abunimah argues, for Palestinians and Israelis to imagine a different future and a different relationship.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Abunimah's proposal requires deep reservoirs of good will and a willingness to forget at least a few injuries. History will determine whether it's a pipe dream, but it deserves the widest discussion. - <i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Ali Abunimah</b>, a Palestinian-American, is the co-creator and editor of the Electronic Intifada Web site.
