In this study of one of the most extraordinary examples of secret diplomacy in the second half of the twentieth century, David Makovsky, diplomatic correspondent for the Jerusalem Post, explores the personal, domestic, regional, and international factors that led Israel's Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin, Foreign Minister Shimon Peres, and other top aides to negotiate the peace accords."--Jacket

Engagement through disengagement : Gaza and the potential for renewed Israeli-Palestinian peacemaking by
David Makovsky(
)
8 editions published in 2005 in English and held by 548 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
"How can Washington take advantage of the narrow window of opportunity afforded by the Israeli withdrawal from Gaza? David Makovsky argues that reactivating the peace process may depend on concerted, U.S.-led efforts to ensure a viable ceasefire, confront rejectionists, craft sound economic policies for Gaza, and garner Arab support. Supplemented with detailed maps and key documents, this study shows how successful disengagement can reaffirm faith in peacemaking by emboldening Palestinian moderates and shattering entrenched Israeli taboos."--BOOK JACKET

He is one of the most controversial political figures of a generation.

To the Palestinians, he is a reviled figure who authorized atrocities during warfare and works to undermine their rights today.

Preventing an Iranian nuclear breakout : U.S. - Israel coordination by
Patrick Clawson(
)
2 editions published in 2012 in English and held by 3 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Although the United States and Israel agree that Iran should not be permitted to have nuclear weapons, they may not see eye-to-eye on how to achieve that goal. In particular, high-profile disagreements have surfaced regarding redlines and deadlines for termination of the regime's nuclear program. In addition to complicating U.S.-Israeli relations, such public rifts could lead Tehran to believe that it can continue its nuclear activities without fear of consequences. In spring and summer 2012, The Washington Institute convened a strategic dialogue with a small group of knowledgeable and influential Israelis and Americans to discuss bilateral consultation on prevention. This report represents the authors' conclusions after participating in that dialogue. With the presidential campaign season in full swing and the probability of a strike growing, their recommendations for how to coordinate U.S. and Israeli actions are more timely than ever

The Palestinian bid for UN membership : rationale, response, repercussions by
David Makovsky(
)
1 edition published in 2011 in English and held by 1 WorldCat member library worldwide
The Palestinian bid for statehood via the UN is a potential Pandora's box. The stakes are certainly high given the possible consequences for Palestinians and Israelis alike. The issue is not just what happens at the UN, but also its aftermath. If the UN bid proves unavoidable, the question then becomes whether the situation is containable on the ground. If not handled carefully, the aftermath could destabilize the West Bank and upend the relative quiet of the past four years. Whatever unfolds, the situation is a reminder that the lack of a peace agreement makes the Israeli-Palestinian relationship particularly fragile
