my israel question cover

My Israel Question by Anthony Lowenstein, Australian, anti zionist Jewish journalist. Lowenstein was raised to have a liberal zionist view, his own investigative journalism and research led him to stand with Palestine and oppose the state of Israel. This book in addition to detailing much of the reality of israel and palestine, deals with his personal grappling with these issues, anti semitism, islamophobia and the problem of weaponising anti semitism to silence pro palestinian activists. For more from Lowenstein including his latest book “The Palestine Laboratory  “ see his website here
