Eric Alterman's We Are Not One: A History of America's Fight Over Israel is a very timely, critical examination of how the pro-Israel side has dominated public discourse in the US to the point that for many decades only one side of the argument could be heard by all but the most specialized of audiences. • Today that has changed considerably, and Israel is at the center of ferocious debate in a multi-sided argument characterized largely by intense emotion, character assassination and an insistence on rewriting history, with a commitment to emotional “certainties” that have little patience for the complexity of the history that they evoke. • Thursday 11 am the FPA hosts Alterman on his book and dissects the current mismatch between the US/Israel relations while exploring how Israel loses support from American Jews as it gains support from GOP Christian fundamentalists. • https://bookshop.org/p/books/we-are-n... • • Alterman is contributing writer to the Nation and to The American Prospect. In the past, he has been a senior fellow of the Center for American Progress, the World Policy Institute and The Nation Institute, a columnist for Rolling Stone, Mother Jones, The Guardian, The Daily Beast, MSNBC.com, The Forward, Moment and the Sunday Express (London) as well as a contributor to The New Yorker, The Atlantic and Le Monde Diplomatique, among other publications.
