Palestinian Islamic Jihad

A short work written by a lecturer in the Middle Eastern and African History Dept. at Tel Aviv University. The main emphasis of exposition here pertains to the `Palestinian Islamic Jihad Movement'. It is dedicated towards replacing the Zionist state of Israel with a Muslim-dominated state encompassing the entire historical Palestine region. As Dan Pipes opined in a Sept. 2001 MEQ review: its "ideological distinction is to portray Palestine as the key to the Muslim world and therefore contend that anti-Zionism is the key to Islam's success." Steve Tamari [Southern Illinois University, Edwardsville] wrote a very extensive review of this book at [...] in April 2003, and commented that the author "makes a compelling story."
