That this book even exists is remarkable. It’s extraordinarily difficult for a Palestinian and a Jew to write a book that fairly conveys the dominant mood in both communities about Palestine - Israel. But this book not only exists - it’s wise, engaging and deeply humane. It will prove an essential text in bringing diaspora Jews and Palestinians together in the justice movement that this moment demands.Peter Beinart, author of The Crisis of Zionism

This inspiring book presents Arabs and Jews with the challenge of seeing the “other” as we want them to see us - fully human, with our hurts, history, & hopes for the future. It is a pure application of Martin Buber on the importance of forming ‘I-Thou relationships’ because when we recognize the humanity of others, it enhances our own humanity, as well.James Zogby, president and co-founder, Arab American Institute
