Originally published in 1991 the two volume "Encyclopedia of the Palestine Problem" is available under http://www.palestine-encyclopedia.com Anyone still believing the myth of the "evil Palestinians" and the "poor suffering Israelis" will have to revise his position after reading the book. Murder, usurpation, terrorism, destruction of agricultural possessions, elimination of villages, rape and torture .... -the "Encyclopedia of the Palestine Problem" shows in shocking detail the fate of a people whose voice is heard but whom not many seem to listen to. In his forward John Quigley, Professor of International Law, writes: "The consequences of Mr. Nakhleh's analysis are serious. If the government of Israel has committed even a fraction of the international crimes he describes, then virtually every high official in Israel from 1948 to the present is subject to prosecution as a war criminal." Francis A. Bolye, Professor of International Law, states: "It must be read in order to comprehend the enormous sense of historical injustice that has been felt and lived by the Palestinian people for over the past for decades. These grave injustices must be rectified before there can ever be some modicum of peace in the middle East for anyone." Detailed references to the many different sources, from eye witness accounts to United Nations documentation and reports from the Public Record Office in London, show the enormous work of fact finding which has gone into the writing of the encyclopedia. Palestinians do not have such a smooth public relations machine as the Israeli government can afford. However, Palestinians can point to facts - facts which are easily forgotten in the daily dealings with the Palestine problem. -------------------- The author: ISSA NAKHLEH was a Palestinian Christian, born in the Shepherd's Field in Palestine.

We maken kennis met de chauffeur Rommel - die voor de tweede keer trouwt zonder het zijn eerste vrouw te vertellen; met Dalia - die opnieuw zwanger is; met Ramadan - die alleen woont maar geen moment alleen is, en met de Palestijnse intellectueel dr. Haider die treurt om een vermoorde joodse vriend. Aan de hand van dagboekfragmenten en foto's schetst Anja het leven in een klein, overbevolkt en bezet land dat steeds verder wordt ingesloten door een onneembare muur. En Anja zal over haar eigen ervaringen in Gaza vertellen. Voor liefhebbers signeert zij het boek. Ook zal Max Wieselmann spreken, als voorzitter van Een Ander Joods Geluid en lid van het aanbevelingscomité van Stichting Kifaia. De boekpresentatie is georganiseerd door COS Rijnmond & Midden Holland (Centrum voor Internationale Samenwerking) in samenwerking met Boekhandel Donner en uitgeverij Veen Magazines.
