The book focuses strongly on the struggle of the UAW to receive recognition within the automobile industry. It tells the story of the union's fight for equality and fairness and the resistance of the large corporations that the union encountered along the way. This book also focuses on the success brought about by the compromise between the union and corporations.

This book “It’s Palestine not Israel” answers the question: What is Palestine? And is written for every person who believes that there are two sides to every story and who would like to shed light on the plight of Palestinians in the Holy Land of our Lord Jesus Christ. This book is part History and part personal experience as well as personal perceptive based on over 57 years of monitoring the region. The book discusses the historical presence of the Palestinians in that region dating back over 10,000 years, and giving snapshots of significant events all the way through the present time. Some time is devoted to pre-and post World War Two Palestine in order to truly explain the cause of the turmoil that the world now sees. The events immediately after World War Two are especially important as they reveal how Palestine was taken over through a political movement and not a military “civil war” as is rationalized in modern US history books. As a teenager experiencing first hand the nightmare of Haifa on April 22, 1948, I may aware that history has a tendency to leave some of the chapters of the book unwritten for the meek do not always have the strength or the opportunity to write the untold chapters. I feel that those untold stories need to be written or history will always be remembered from only one side and only point of view. There are many empty tears and silent screams that Palestinian children, women and men have endured with little compassion, and this may the true tragedy.

Download and read online ebook The Invention of the Land of Israel write by Shlomo Sand. This book was released on 2012-11-20. The Invention of the Land of Israel available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. What is a homeland and when does it become a national territory? Why have so many people been willing to die for such places throughout the twentieth century? What is the essence of the Promised Land? Following the acclaimed and controversial The Invention of the Jewish People, Shlomo Sand examines the mysterious sacred land that has become the site of the longest-running national struggle of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The Invention of the Land of Israel deconstructs the age-old legends surrounding the Holy Land and the prejudices that continue to suffocate it. Sand’s account dissects the concept of “historical right” and tracks the creation of the modern concept of the “Land of Israel” by nineteenth-century Evangelical Protestants and Jewish Zionists. This invention, he argues, not only facilitated the colonization of the Middle East and the establishment of the State of Israel; it is also threatening the existence of the Jewish state today.

Download and read online ebook The Hundred Years' War on Palestine write by Rashid Khalidi. This book was released on 2020-01-28. The Hundred Years' War on Palestine available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. A landmark history of one hundred years of war waged against the Palestinians from the foremost US historian of the Middle East, told through pivotal events and family history In 1899, Yusuf Diya al-Khalidi, mayor of Jerusalem, alarmed by the Zionist call to create a Jewish national home in Palestine, wrote a letter aimed at Theodore Herzl: the country had an indigenous people who would not easily accept their own displacement. He warned of the perils ahead, ending his note, “in the name of God, let Palestine be left alone.” Thus Rashid Khalidi, al-Khalidi’s great-great-nephew, begins this sweeping history, the first general account of the conflict told from an explicitly Palestinian perspective. Drawing on a wealth of untapped archival materials and the reports of generations of family members—mayors, judges, scholars, diplomats, and journalists—The Hundred Years' War on Palestine upends accepted interpretations of the conflict, which tend, at best, to describe a tragic clash between two peoples with claims to the same territory. Instead, Khalidi traces a hundred years of colonial war on the Palestinians, waged first by the Zionist movement and then Israel, but backed by Britain and the United States, the great powers of the age. He highlights the key episodes in this colonial campaign, from the 1917 Balfour Declaration to the destruction of Palestine in 1948, from Israel’s 1982 invasion of Lebanon to the endless and futile peace process. Original, authoritative, and important, The Hundred Years' War on Palestine is not a chronicle of victimization, nor does it whitewash the mistakes of Palestinian leaders or deny the emergence of national movements on both sides. In reevaluating the forces arrayed against the Palestinians, it offers an illuminating new view of a conflict that continues to this day.
