Leading Middle East expert and historian charts path to Israel’s victory and end to conflict
With the Gaza conflict now more than eight months old and Israel still unable to deliver the final blow to Hamas’ military or governmental capacity, renowned Middle East expert and historian Dr. Daniel Pipes releases a detailed road map for how the Jewish state can win the war and finally end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Dr. Pipes’ latest book, Israel Victory : How Zionists Win Acceptance and Palestinian Get Liberated (Wicked Son, an imprint of Post Hill Press), is a fascinating book that delves into the complexities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, offering a groundbreaking perspective on achieving a lasting resolution.
“Since October 7, the Israeli public has been unprecedentedly open to new ideas about ending the conflict,” said Dr. Pipes.
“As someone who has advocated for an Israeli victory for more than a quarter of a century, coupled with a growing lack of trust in the security and political establishment, I believe the time has come to unleash this unprecedented path to victory. The Israeli-Palestinian conflict will only reach an acceptable conclusion with a Palestinian sense of defeat,” he continues.
“This book provides a road map for achieving victory with minimal violence and maximum messaging, which will ultimately benefit both Israelis and Palestinians.”
Experienced reviewers have already stated that Israel Victory brings startlingly new ideas and original policy recommendations to a well-worn topic. Dr. Pipes draws lessons from past failures of the “peace process,” examines the universal nature of defeat and victory, and offers practical advice on how Israel can win: with minimal violence and maximum messaging. Both sides need an Israeli victory to break the static pull of outdated mindsets. For Israel, it means acceptance, especially among Muslims and the global left. For Palestinians, an Israeli victory means freedom from a destructive obsession, allowing them at last to build a politics, economy, society, and culture worthy of their skills and ambitions.
“Winning wars is a lost art in the Western world. Not only has the United States not won since 1945, but the famed Israeli security establishment has not done so since 1973,” écrit Robert Spencer, auteur de The Palestinian Delusion : The Catastrophic History of the Middle East Peace Process.
“Daniel Pipes brilliantly argues here that forcing one’s enemy to accept defeat is essential to true security. Israel’s Victory is required reading for both the IDF and the State Department.
The book meticulously documents the failure of conciliatory policies and argues for a return to the classic strategy of peace through victory. Pipes combines historical analysis with contemporary perspectives, drawing lessons from past failures and offering practical recommendations for the future. The book also explores the psychological and cultural dimensions of the conflict, providing a deep understanding of the motivations and mindsets of both sides.
The foreword is written by Danny Danon, Israel’s new ambassador to the United Nations and a member of Israel’s Knesset, emphasizing the importance of Pipes’ ideas in reshaping the approach to this long-running conflict.
“Drawing on his 55 years of study of Middle Eastern history and a deep understanding of the Palestinian condition, Pipes offers a compelling and comprehensive road map for Israel, concluding that, counterintuitively and ironically, while ‘both sides need the collapse of rejection’, it ‘would bring even greater benefits to the Palestinians than to the Israelis’.” wrote Danon.
“(It is) a captivating book that will trigger a process of reflection and reevaluation in the reader, and will serve as a catalyst for new conversations about the conflict.”
