Description: A controversial examination of the internal Israeli debate over the Israeli - Palestinian conflict from a best - selling Israeli author" A must for anyone who wants to understand the tectonic forces underlying Israeli politics." Rabbi Robert Orkand Reform Judaism" An eloquent expression of the distant hope that deeply committed human beings can stop inhale deeply listen change and compromise." Kirkus Reviews Starred Review Since the Six - Day War Israelis have been entrenched in a national debate over whether to keep the land they conquered or to return some if not all of the territories to Palestinians. In 2017, best - selling Israeli author Micah Goodman published a balanced and insightful analysis of the situation that quickly became one of Israel's most debated books of the year. Now available in English translation with a new preface by the author Catch - 67 deftly sheds light on the ideas that have shaped Israelis thinking on both sides of the debate and among secular and religious Jews about the Israeli - Palestinian conflict. Contrary to opinions that dominate the discussion he shows that the paradox of Israeli political discourse is that both sides are right in what they affirm and wrong in what they deny. Although he concludes that the conflict cannot be solved Goodman is far from a pessimist and explores how instead it can be reduced in scope and danger through limited practical steps. Through philosophical critique and political analysis Goodman builds a creative compelling case for pragmatism in a dispute where a comprehensive solution seems impossible.
