"In How Israel Lost Richard Ben Cramer analyzes the four questions that have bedeviled Israel and Palestine for almost forty years." "Cramer insists that Israel is losing her soul by maintaining her occupation of the lands conquered in the Six Day War. Israel has become a victim of that occupation no less than the Palestinians, who must have a nation of their own. Cramer makes clear why the occupation endures and how it corrupts and corrodes the societies of both Arab and Jew."--BOOK JACKET.

Why do we care about Israel? -- Why don't the Palestinians have a state? -- What is a Jewish state? -- Why is there no peace?.
