In this powerful and moving account, Israeli author and activist Miko Peled tells the story of his journey to understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and to find a path to peace. Peled, the son of a prominent Israeli general, grew up believing in the Zionist narrative of Israel as a safe haven for Jews. But after serving in the Israeli military and witnessing the violence and oppression of the Palestinian people, his beliefs began to change.

Peled traveled to the West Bank and Gaza Strip, where he met with Palestinians from all walks of life. He heard their stories of dispossession, discrimination, and violence. He saw firsthand the Israeli military's brutal occupation of the Palestinian territories. And he came to understand that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not simply a matter of two sides with competing claims to the same land. It is a conflict rooted in a history of colonialism, racism, and dispossession.

Peled's book is a powerful indictment of the Israeli government's policies toward the Palestinians. He argues that Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories is a violation of international law and a crime against humanity. He calls for an end to the occupation and for the establishment of a just and lasting peace between Israelis and Palestinians.

But Peled's book is not just a condemnation of Israeli policy. It is also a call for hope and reconciliation. Peled believes that a just peace is possible, but it will require Israelis and Palestinians to work together to overcome the legacy of violence and distrust that has divided them for so long.

An Israeli in Palestine: Resisting Dispossession, Redeeming Israel is a powerful and moving account of one man's journey to understand the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and to find a path to peace. It is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand this complex and intractable conflict.
