The book that shook a large part of the world 20 years ago has finally been updated and brought back into print (read the revues of the original book on Amazon). Philistine is truly an explosive blockbuster-it will shock you; it will grip you; it will inform you; until you read it you will never understand the Middle East-the world's most volatile region. As the book progresses the learned author unfolds the fascinating history of Israel and Palestine that every Western politician would do well to both read and to absorb. And the author initiates readers into the appalling, deceitful practices of the Western news media as well as the anti-Semitism and anti-Israel bias that permeates the United Nations. The author also documents the shocking truth about the Palestinian Refugee issue. The PLO (Palestinian Liberation Organization) peace deal with Israel is not a peace deal at all, it is only a deceitful Islamic truce, a copy of the one used by Mohammed against the Kuraish people and the one used by Saladin against the Crusaders-both times the truces ended in Islamic victories. There can never be peace with Israel, only eventual victory for Islam. The Arab-Israeli conflict is not over land per se, it is a 1,400-year-long spiritual conflict that will end only when one side is vanquished, or when the Jewish Messiah stands on the Mount of Olives. Over 1,500 quotations and references document the devastating broadsides the author courageously fires in this updated version of the 1995 runaway international bestseller that was published in 11 languages. As the Editor has said: "This book is a 'must' on the reading list of both the informed and uninformed."
