Das Gebiet, in dem der heutige Staat Israel liegt, gilt als Wiege des Judentums. Die späteren abrahamitischen Religionen, das Christentum und der Islam, haben dort ihren historischen Ursprung. Seit 63 v. Chr. stand die Region 700 Jahre lang unter römischer Herrschaft. Auf die Römer folgten die Byzantiner, dann die Araber und Osmanen sowie schließlich die Briten. Die dort seit mehreren tausend Jahren ansässigen Juden wurden mehrfach vertrieben und verteilten sich weltweit in der sogenannten Diaspora.

President Carter has been a student of the biblical Holy Land all his life. For the last three decades, as president of the United States and as founder of The Carter Center, he has studied the complex and interrelated issues of the region's conflicts and has been actively involved in reconciling them. He knows the leaders of all factions in the region who will need to play key roles, and he sees encouraging signs among them.

The Olive Branch from Palestine provides a new narrative of the Palestinian effort to end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and offers a bold plan for ending this conflict today, a proposal that focuses on Palestinian agency and the power of the Palestinians to bring about the two-state solution, even in the absence of a fully committed Israeli partner.

The history of Jerusalem is one of conflict, faith, and empire. Few cities have been attacked as often and as savagely. This was no less true in the Middle Ages. From the Persian sack in 614 through the bloody First Crusade and beyond, Jerusalem changed hands countless times. But despite these horrific acts of violence, its story during this period is also one of interfaith tolerance and accord. In this gripping history, John D. Hosler explores the great clashes and delicate settlements of medieval Jerusalem.

Ida Pfeiffer (1797 – 1858) ist eine absolute Ausnahmeerscheinung im Genre der Reiseliteratur – und ihr Leben eine Verfilmung wert! Zunächst fügte sie sich den "guten Sitten", heiratete einen Mann, den sie nicht liebte, bekam zwei Söhne. So weit, so normal. Dann starb ihr Mann – und auch ihre Mutter. Nachdem die Söhne eigene Karrieren begonnen hatten, waren die Zeiten der Pflichterfüllung für Ida Pfeiffer vorbei: Sie wollte reisen! Und das tat sie. Ganz allein fuhr sie in neun Monaten von Wien nach Konstantinopel, dann Beirut, Jerusalem, zum Toten Meer, nach Damaskus, Baalbek, Alexandria und Kairo.

On September 6, 1970, twelve-year-old Martha Hodes and her thirteen-year-old sister were flying unaccompanied back to New York City from Israel when their plane was hijacked by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and forced to land in the Jordan desert. Too young to understand the sheer gravity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Martha coped by suppressing her fear and anxiety. Nearly a half-century later, her memories of those six days and nights as a hostage are hazy and scattered.

Why do Israelis have among the world’s highest life expectancies and lowest rates of “deaths of despair” from suicide and substance abuse? Why is Israel’s population young and growing while all other wealthy democracies are aging and shrinking? How can it be that Israel, according to a United Nations ranking, is the fourth happiest nation in the world? Why do Israelis tend to look to the future with hope, optimism, and purpose while the rest of the West struggles with an epidemic of loneliness, teen depression, and social decline?

Access to water has played a pivotal role in the Israel-Palestine dispute. Israel has diverted the River Jordan via pipes and canals to build a successful modern state. But this has been at the expense of the region's cohabitants. Gaza is now so water-stressed that the United Nations has warned it could soon become uninhabitable; its traditional water source has been ruined by years of over-extraction and mismanagement, the effects exacerbated by years of crippling blockade.
