09w03:2 Chronicle of a Suicide Foretold: The Case of Israel Posted January 18th, 2009 by timothy. 0 Comments Goodreads | 2009 week 3 number 2 (Chronicle of a Suicide Foretold: The Case of Israel) Chronicle of a Suicide Foretold: The Case of Israel | Immanuel Wallerstein http://www.binghamton.edu/fbc/249en.htm “The three-element strategy of Israel is decomposing. The iron fist no longer succeeds, much as it didn’t for George Bush in Iraq. Will the United States link remain firm? I doubt it. And will world public opinion continue to look sympathetically on Israel? It seems not. Can Israel now switch to an alternative strategy, of negotiating with the militant representatives of the Arab Palestinians, as an integral constituent of the Middle East, and not as an outpost of Europe? It seems quite late for that, quite possibly too late. Hence, the chronicle of a suicide foretold.”
