Pluto Press20041 online resource (248 p.)Bibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: Monograph9780745320557 0745320554 9780745320564 0745320562 Includes bibliographical references and index.This is a controversial book. It is a critical account of the historical, political and cultural roots of Zionism. John Rose shows how this powerful political force is based in mythology; ancient, medieval and modern. Many of these stories, as with other mythologies, have no basis in fact. However, because Zionism is a living political force, these myths have been used to justify very real and political ends -- namely, the expulsion and continuing persecution of the Palestinians.Chapter-by-chapter, John Rose scrutinises the roots of the myths of Zionism. Mobilising recent scholarship, he separates fact from fiction presenting a detailed analysis of their origins and development. This includes a challenge to Zionism's biblical claims using very recent and very startling Israeli archaeological conclusions. He provides a detailed exploration of Judaism's links to the Middle East. He shows clearly that Zionism makes many false claims on Jewish religion and history. He questions its rationale as a response to European anti-Semitism, and shows that, if there is ever to be peace and reconciliation in the land of Palestine, this intellectual dishonesty must be addressed.ZionismHistoryArab-Israeli conflictZionismHistory.Arab-Israeli conflict.320.54/095694Rose John1945-296991MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910965602803321The myths of Zionism4475756UNINA
