The new governments of Israel and Palestine - dooming each other to failure? Why the rush of the Western World to boycott Palestine? Peretz and the Defence establishment - who will controll whom? These are leading questions in the new issue of The Other Israel.

Furthermore - two-state solution discredited. Translation of a remarkable Yediot interview. John Bunzl about Islam's Holocaust denial trap. Gila Svirsky on Hamas ("I would never have voted for Hamas or Begin or Sharon)". Bombs in Gaza and Tel-Aviv. Uri Avnery about the US-Israel relations & the lobby debate. Treeplanting report. Nuri el-Okbi's struggle for Bedouin rights. Dignified protest met with violence in A-Ram's. Refusers meet Palestinian ex-prisoners, and more.
