Whither
Zionism?
Whither Zionism? is now at the publisher and ought to be available within a month or so. It
presents the historical basis of the current Middle East conflict from the Greco-Roman era until
today. But don't worry, it is written in simple language that even our politicians and "public
opinion makers" can understand. Furthermore the information is condensed into only a little over one
hundred pages.
This was done on purpose so that the people in charge of our lives have no excuse of being too
busy for reading the material. The Arab-Israeli conflict is nothing else but a replay of ancient
history with America having assumed the role formerly played by Rome. Since our tax dollars are used for arms and ammunitions in that part of the world, and since the oil spigot can be turned off at a moment's notice,
the history of that region is not an idle academic exercise but vitally important to all of us. One of
my goals in life has always been to deprive myself of excuses and now is the time to do this to our
policy makers. Ignorance is not bliss, it leads to disasters.
