Synopsis

After decades of being seen by Israel as a terrorist and arch-enemy, Yasser Arafat became a partner in the peace-making progress. In one of the most extraordinary examples of secret diplomacy this century, Israel's Prime Minister, Foreign Minister and other senior aides privately negotiated an end to years of hostility between Arabs and Israelis. Exploring the personal, domestic, regional and international factors leading to the peace accords, this book charts key episodes such as Israel's deportation of radical Islamic activists in December 1992, and its retaliation against Hizbollah rocket attacks from south Lebanon in July 1993. Interview with Israeli, Palestinian, American and Egyptian officials are used to build up a detailed picture of the Israeli-PLO bargaining process, culminating in the historic breakthrough in Oslo.
