In 1987, after 20 years of Israeli occupation, the West Bank and Gaza erupted in Palestinian rebellion and the Israelis, the PLO and the Jordanians were all taken by surprise. Drawing on wide-ranging sources and exclusive documents, Schiff and Ya'ari describe how this spontaneous outburst developed into an organized revolt, which has become, in effect, a third front for Israel. From the first signs of unrest to the wide-ranging political, social and economic consequences, Intifada traces the impact of the third front. It recounts, for the first time, how the clandestine Palestinian organizations moved to control the wildfire and harness it to their own ends, while the Israeli army stood frozen, trapped between right-wing demands and the moral dilemma of dealing with unarmed civilians. A rare and exciting look at the rebellion and how it works, from the streets of the West Bank to the highest levels of government, Intifada is reportage with enormous implications for both Israel and the world. Ze'ev Schiff is military correspondent for Ha'aretz, Israel's most prestigious daily and has written and co-authored several previous books. Ehud Ya'ari is the Middle East affairs correspondent for Israel television and is also the author of two previous books and co-authored "Israel's Lebanon War" and "The Year of the Dove" with Ze'ev Schiff.
