This is the textbook for Middle East History at Mira Costa. It is a very good book and, like its name implies, is rather concise for the breadth of history that it covers. I am going to use it in my paper as the basis for the history of which concerns the topic of which I am writing and then I will use my other sources off of this source, as I feel it does provide a roughly equal stance for both sides.
Chomsky, Noam. ""Exterminate all the Brutes": Gaza 2009.” 6 June 2009.Chomsky.info. 8 July 2009.
Prof. Chomsky is a leading compiler of the U.S. state of affairs, especially concerning foreign relations. He is frequently talking about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and is a strict anti-Zionist. Chomsky feels that it is the U.S. which has systematically blocked the peace between these two peoples for decades just for the simple fact of having a military arm in the Middle East. He is notorious for backing nearly everything he says with a source and for this reason his arguments carry tremendous weight.
Shragai, Nadav. “Jerusalem: The Dangers of Division.” Strategic Perspectives October 2008. Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs. 9 July 2009.
Nadav Shragai presents my counter argument to Prof. Chomsky, he is a devout Zionist and believes that any solution in which Palestinians are not under the control of the Israelis or the Israeli military is a flawed solution. This article is about the possiblity of seperating Jurusalem in half along the future border of a possible Palestinian state, as well as the seperation of the Paelstinian Authority controlled areas from Israel. It is mainly focused however on the Israeli perspective.
