Whose Land? Whose Promise?: What Christians Are Not Being Told about Israel and the Palestinians
Gary M. Burge - 2003
Whose Land? Whose Promise? is Burge's personal exploration of his feelings about the crisis in the Middle East, put on paper to communicate with other Christians who share the same opinions he does and seek answers to the same questions he does; questions such as: How do I embrace my commitment to Judaism, a commitment to which I am bound by the Bible, when I sense in my deepest being that there is a profound injustice afoot in Israel? How do I celebrate the birth of this nation Israel when I also mourn the suffering of Arab Christians who are equally my brothers and sisters in Christ? How do I love those Palestinian Muslims who are deeply misunderstood by all parties in this conflict?

The young widower is dedicated to an equally youthful George Washington, who soon sends him as a delegate to the Albany Congress. There, Ephraim will join with world-famous men to encourage the bickering colonies to unite and defend against the French. Should their efforts fail, London will be forced to dispatch a commander-in-chief of their own. Through grit, this general will forcibly yoke the thirteen colonies and take the largest army ever gathered on American soil into the wilds. Will he heed his provincial advisors and fight a different type of war? Or, will he march to battle in the European way? Regardless of his choice, Providence has decreed that men and women will be swallowed by an epic conflict. Lives collide with one another and history, proving that individuals affect the fate of nations. Savage War snaps to life amidst a contest of body and will. It ends in a bubbling cauldron of strife along the banks of the Monongahela. Savage War is a brilliant yarn that gives breathtaking life to the birth pangs of a nation.

A Wall in Palestine
René Backmann - 2009
Declared illegal by the United Nations International Court of Justice, this network of concrete walls, trenches, and barbed-wire fences could permanently redraw one of the most disputed property lines in the Middle East--the Green Line that separates Israel and the West Bank. To Israel the "security fence" is intended to keep Palestinian terrorists from entering its territory. But to Palestinians the "apartheid wall" that sliced through orchards and houses, and cuts off family members from one another, is a land grab.In this comprehensive book, Backmann not only addresses the barrier's impact on ordinary citizens, but how it will shape the future of the Middle East. Though it promises security to an Israeli population weary of terrorism, it also is responsible for the widespread destruction of Palestinian homes and farmland; with its Byzantine checkpoint regulations, it has also severely crippled the Palestinian economy; and, most urgent, the barrier often deviates from the Green Line, appropriating thousands of acres of land, effectively redrawing the boundary between the West Bank and Israel.Backmann interviews Israeli policy makers, politicians, and military personnel, as well as Palestinians living throughout the West Bank, telling the stories not only of the barrier's architects, but also of those who must reckon with it on a day-to-day basis on the ground.With bold, brilliant, and often impassioned reportage, A Wall in Palestine renders the West Bank Barrier--its purpose, its efficacy, its consequences--as no book before.
