The Resistible Rise of Benjamin Netanyahu
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
Description
The first English-language biography of Benjamin Netanyahu, the divisive and controversial Prime Minister of Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu is the longest serving Prime Minister of Israel. For much of the world, Netanyahu is a right-wing nationalist zealot; for many Israelis he is a centrist who is too soft on Arabs and backs down too easily in a fight. Love him or loathe him, Netanyahu has been at the very center of Arab-Israeli politics since 1990, when he became the telegenic Israeli spokesman for CNN's coverage of the Persian Gulf War, arguably ushering in the Americanization of the Israeli media. Netanyahu is famous for his TV skills, but there is so much more to reveal—good and bad—about the man and his place in Israeli, Middle Eastern and world political history.
Using the juncture of the Oslo Accords to take the reader back to Netanyahu's formative years, Neill Lochery, a renowned scholar of Middle Eastern politics and history, chronicles not only the Prime Minister's life but also the issues his career has encompassed, from the rise of militant Islam to the politics of oil; from the transformation of Israeli politics by the 24/7 cable news cycle to the US's changing role in the Middle East.
