Widely considered the foremost historian of the modern Middle East, Rashid Khalidi here zeroes in on the United States' role as a purportedly impartial, honest broker in thirty-five years of a failed Palestinian-Israeli peace process. Khalidi closely analyzes the "Reagan Plan" of 1982, the 1991--1993 period covering the Madrid Peace Conference to the signing of the Oslo Accords, and President Obama's retreat from his initially firm positions on the preconditions for a resolution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. These three moments reveal how the United States and Israel have colluded to prevent the emergence of a viable Palestinian state and preserve a status quo favorable to Israel. Brokers of Injustice shows why peace in the Middle East has been impossible to achieve.
