• Fareed Zakaria: “This week's book is the one I mentioned earlier on the show, Peter Beinart's "The Crisis of Zionism." This book has been debated across America and Israel. In it, Beinart argues that Israel has to deal with two major threats, and he is not talking about Iran and Hamas. Instead, he means the continuing occupation of the West Bank and the resulting alienation of young Jews in the United States. Peter writes with passion and intelligence. It is a compelling read.”
