Last year in Germany, I bought this book on sale, just because I like to learn more about Israel. Goliaths Falle: Israelis und Palaestinenser im Wuergegriff (Goliath's Trap: Israelis and Palestinians in a Stranglehold) by Moshe Zimmermann. I started reading some of the articles right away and then continued this year on my next trip. It was very timely after the attack on the ship that happened recently.

The book gave me another glimpse at the kind of thinking that is common among Israelis and among Palestinians and a little more understanding of why the conflict is so difficult to solve and is still going on. The vicious circle of escalating violence and counter-violence. The borders of the country that are still ill-defined have contributed to conflict all along since the existence of the state of Israel. Zimmermann knows that "the occupation in the long run hurts those the most who carry it out.

Dieses Buch soll jetzt in meiner deutschsprachigen Bookbox innerhalb der USA reisen.

I'm releasing this book into my German Language Bookbox within the USA.

Taken from the bookbox.

Added to a box of books mailed to Europe.

Vasha sent this book together with many 1001-books to me, to send them along to new readers.

It arrived some time ago, but due to personal circumstances I did not have the opportunity to register it yet.

After a short stop with me it'll continue its journey to noname-blue, who agreed to take the German books.

Sent on as one of 6 in a box to the next reader: noname-blue. I hope they all arrive quickly and safely.

Dieses Buch kam mit kehrender Post wieder zurück zu mir ;-( Werde es nach Pfingsten wieder auf Reise senden und hoffentlich geht es dann besser.

Zum 2. Mal: dieses Buch geht auf Reise zu noname-blue. Hoffentlich kommt es diesmal schon an....

Im Paket von Totje2.
