Book by Seth Anziska examines why Palestinian statehood was systematically prevented from the 1978 Camp David Accords through the Oslo process of the 1990s, arguing that American and Israeli policymakers deliberately foreclosed the option of a Palestinian state while maintaining the rhetorical framework of a two-state solution. Drawing on newly declassified US and Israeli archives, Anziska documents how the peace process was structured to deny Palestinians sovereignty. Essential for historians and policy researchers studying the history of US-brokered Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, the systematic prevention of Palestinian statehood, and the gap between the rhetoric and reality of American support for a two-state solution.
