Over the last year, I’ve struggled with the way many Jews— including people I cherish— have justified the destruction of an entire society. This book is about the stories Jews tell ourselves that blind us to Palestinian suffering. It’s about how we came to value a state, Israel, above the lives of all the people who live under its control. And it’s about why I believe that Palestinian liberation means Jewish liberation as well. My hope is that even people who disagree fervently with my arguments will feel that it was a written in a spirit of Jewish solidarity and love. And that, in some small way, it might contribute to the struggle for Palestinian freedom while also opening a conversation within the Jewish communities and families ruptured by this horrifying war.

Thanks,

Peter
