The ongoing modern Middle East problem had its origins in the 1967 War between Israel and the Arab world and the ensuing Israeli occupation of a vast expanse of Arab territory. From the start, Washington and Israel had distinct views of the occupation?s significance and of its utility in the post-War Middle East. This detailed study of US-Israeli relations focuses on the first two-and-a-half years after the 1967 War, tracing the emergence of the two states? recognition of their mutually incompatible objectives and their efforts to cope with the situation. This book will appeal to specialists, to informed observers, and to all who are interested in US-Israeli relations in the 40-year-old search for Mideast peace. Dan Tschirgi is Professor of Political Science at the American University in Cairo and the author of various works on Middle East politics.
