Rael Jean Isaac is a graduate of Barnard College and Johns Hopkins University and has written extensively on public policy issues in journals including Commentary, National Review, the Wall Street Journal, The Reader's Digest, The Atlantic, and others. She has written many articles for the print edition of The American Spectator, including "Games AntiNukes Play," "The Scandal of Legal Services," "The Nuclear Test Ban Hoax," and "The Cult of Seymour Hersh." She has also written four books, the most recent being "Climate Change: Roosters of the Apocalypse." Derived from a Kirkus review: A study of two "extremist" political tendencies which appeared in Israel after the victorious 1967 war: the Land of Israel Movement (LIM), devoted to securing Israeli possession of the territories gained in the war, and a peace movement of academics, students, radical kibbutz members, and socialists, which called for social justice toward Arabs living under Israeli rule. Isaac describes both groupings as non-party formations agreed on "normative Zionism," or the virtues of ties to the soil. The LIM advocated independence from both the Americans and Soviets. Attracting dissidents from several parties and support from figures like General Dayan, it gained steam until the 1973 war, a war which undermined the idea that more territory meant more security. The book describes leaders and factions of both movements; but the way key Knesset votes were or were not influenced by extra-parliamentary pressure remain unclear. Relatively sympathetic to the LIM, Isaac concludes that disorder is endemic to the region and thus the peace movement has poor prospects. The book opens new access to some of the complexities of Israeli policy debate. Johns Hopkins Paperback Edition, presumed first printing thus. Seller Inventory # 87507
