Reviews
“Fateful Triangle may be the most ambitious book ever attempted on the conflict between Zionism and the Palestinians viewed as centrally involving the United States. It is a dogged expose of human corruption, greed, and intellectual dishonesty. It is also a great and important book, which must be read by anyone concerned with public affairs.”
—Edward Said, from the foreword

"A devastating collection of charges aimed at Israeli and American policies that affect the Palestinian Arabs negatively."
—Library Journal

"Brilliant and Unscrupulous."
—Observer

"A major, timely and devastating analysis of one of the great tragedies.”
—Fred Halliday, Tribune

"Formidable."
—The Jewish Quarterly

“One of the definitive works on the Israeli Palestinian conflict.”
—Amy Goodman
