“Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine" | Robert Malley

The Middle East Policy Forum is proud to host Robert Malley as he discusses his new book, "Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine," with Professor Marc Lynch. In "Tomorrow Is Yesterday: Life, Death, and the Pursuit of Peace in Israel/Palestine," Robert Malley partners with analyst Hussein Agha to offer a personal and bracing perspective on how the hopes of the Oslo Peace Process became the horrors of the present day. Drawing on their experience advising the Palestinian leadership (Arafat and Abbas) and U.S. presidents (Clinton, Obama, and Biden) and their participation in secret talks over decades, Agha and Malley offer candid portraits of leading figures and an interpretation of the conflict that exposes the delusions of all sides. They stress that the two-state solution became a global goal only when it was no longer viable; that U.S. officials preferred technical schemes to a frank reckoning with the past; that Hamas’s onslaught and Israel’s war of destruction were not historical exceptions but historical reenactments; and that the gaps separating Israelis and Palestinians have less to do with territorial allocation than with history and emotions.
