Israel's Unilateralism

"In August 2005, Israel closed its Gaza settlements and withdrew some 8,000 Jews who had lived there. In Israel's Unilateralism award-winning journalist Robert Zelnick examines Israel's disengagement from Gaza and what it might lead to in the future. He offers a detailed account of the actual pullout, explains the evolution of the thought behind the policy, and analyzes the Palestinian response from both moderates and Hamas. Zelnick looks at the factors that led to the metamorphosis of Ariel Sharon - the indispensable party to this policy - revealing how demographics, the specter of Road Map negotiations, and Sharon's search for a legacy all played a part in his about-face and weighs the impact of the loss of Sharon."--Jacket.
