Palestine: Prophetic Principles over Prophecies highlights the moral underpinning of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict. It outlines a proposal for the creation of a new political dynamics in the Middle East that has the potential for bringing an amicable peace to the region. It calls on all people of conscience to work towards a political solution rooted in human rights and international humanitarian law. It stresses the need to recognize the equal dignity of all human beings, respect the universal principles at the core of modern consciousness, and forge a new political state suitable for the emerging global order. This book calls, in short, for rejecting current political justification of the greatest injustice of our time based on parochial religious interpretations, and for adopting a solution rooted in the notions of equal dignity and universal rights. It stresses, that is, the need to privilege prophetic traditions over prophecies!
