Description: A high - level insider's history of the efforts to resolve the Israeli - Palestinian conflict from 2000 Camp David Talks to the present that explains why successive attempts have all failed. The clash between Israel and Palestine has been one of the most emotionally engaging causes of modern times. Prophets without Honor tells the story of the grueling attempts to solve the conflict and examines the reasons for its resilience. Shlomo Ben - Ami who participated at a high level in the July 2000 Camp David peace talks that almost led to a historic deal uses his insider experience to illuminate the specific factors that impede a solution to the conflict. He finds that the occupation's traits of permanence Israel's insatiable quest for Lebensraum and a hopelessly fragmented and disoriented Palestinian national movement are to blame. Ben - Ami challenges the funereal historiography that emerged in the wake of the Camp David process when - - for the first time ever - - Israelis and Palestinians engaged in the Sisyphean task of breaking the taboos surrounding the conflict. The Clinton Peace Parameters that emerged out of this process eventually became the litmus test of every serious peace proposal in the future. But ill - conceived perceptions of the other party all - or - nothing theological fanaticism and a lack of bold and enlightened leadership have made these attempts at peace - making a defining failure of the two - state concept. Ben - Ami scrutinizes the ominous alternatives to the two - state solution such as the binational state a unilateral pullout from much of the West Bank and Donald Trump's Deal of the Century. He also examines the merits of a Jordanian - Palestinian solution. In discussing Palestine from a comparative perspective he underlines its singularity while also shedding light on the dilemmas that stand at the center of any peace enterprise. Ultimately his account is the most non - partisan comprehensive and balanced written by an insider representing one of the parties.
