OverviewJews, Christians and Moslems have histories of excellence in terms of their religion, culture and the creativity they have brought to the world through the centuries. It is not always so. Sometimes they have also brought shame. When the different histories of Palestine and Israel are one day written they will be followed by countless others, showing different perspectives for different reasons. Doubtless there will be multitudes of conclusions, each with their own truth. What will matter will be the perception of values that were held, ignored or perverted and in what ways they contributed to the well being of people. Motives and deeds will be analysed with the benefit of hindsight. There will be no place to hide. The follies, mistakes, intentions, wickedness will be brought into the light of understanding. Readers will marvel at the courage of some, be appalled at the atrocities of others, sympathetic to the endeavours of many more. Generations to come will look at their forebears in admiration, shame, and sorrow. This book is an attempt to contribute to that understanding.There has been conflict in the Middle East for decades which is connected to the intractable problem of the Israel-Palestine conflict. At the core of the problem are the uses and abuses of the Abrahamic Covenant. This book attempts to show how the (mis)understanding of the Abrahamic Covenant is a major difficulty in resolving this problem today.
