5.0 out of 5 starsDeception is an Understatement
By Jeffrey Leach HALL OF FAME on May 22, 2002
Format: Paperback
"Deliberate Deceptions" is the second Paul Findley book I have read. The first, of course, was "They Dare to Speak Out." Findley, a former congressman from Illinois, is a crusader for truth in the relationship between Israel and the United States. In "They Dare to Speak Out," Findley discusses the sinister influence of the pro-Israel lobby on American government. In this book, Findley broadens his criticism well beyond the borders of lobbying. The importance of Findley's books take on additional dimensions of meaning since the terrorist attacks of last summer.
"Deliberate Deceptions" exposes serious concerns about Israeli-U.S. relations. Findley argues, convincingly, that Israel is an aggressive, hostile state that will stop at nothing to further its own ends at the expense of others. Israel suctions billions of dollars out of U.S. coffers, with special deals on loans and military hardware that no other country in the world gets. Israel also has the bomb and refuses to allow international inspections of its facilities in the Negev desert. Findley reveals Israel's spy networks in the United States, its cozy relationship with the South African government (during the Apartheid era), and its tendency to resell American military technologies for self-enrichment. The amount of statements and evidence Findley marshals is both amazing and disgusting. Where is the United States government when all of this is happening? It's in large part our government that reinforces this bad behavior. Politicians, according to Findley, are scared of Israel's lobby and influence. The result is that the U.S. turns a blind eye to these shenanigans.
The Palestinians are the primary victims of Israel's aggression.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsSIMPLE FACTS: A MORE BALANCED VIEW IS SUBMITTED
By A Customer on April 9, 2002
Format: Paperback
For those who find themselves confused and misinformed, because of the sheer flow of distorted information and propaganda regarding the Palestinian question and Middle East crisis, I would strongly recommend this book. Here Findley portraits, in a readable and simple fashion, the basic illusions under which the american public has been nurtured, regarding the true intentions and policies of the theocratic government in Israel, and the suppression of palestinians fundamental human rights.
This is a book that must be read to aquire a more balanced view of the Middle East drama, specially now that the fundamental right of a Palestinian State to exist is being again denied by the ortodox driven government of Sharon.
Here you will find, in a very simple and understandable presentation, the basic information about the British ill fated handling of the palestinian land; the meaning of the Balfour Declaration; an explanation of the U.N. Resolutions regarding the State of Israel and its policies; and revealing facts about the deceptions and the wars that have been fought, not usually presented in a truthful manner to the american voters.
Only if the true facts are known, and this is why one must read this book, the appalling tragedy of the palestinian people can be understood. Only then, will it be possible for the U.S. to shape a different foreign policy towards the Middle East based on the premise that all fanatical and totalitarian views must be abandoned, including those of the right wing in Israel, in order to seek a solution to the problem. The U.S. has unduly financed and permitted, through a miopic view of the situation, the furtherance of an expansionistic vision by Sharon, and the destruction of Palestinian Authority.Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsDisturbing account of a misplaced trust
By A Customer on September 9, 2002
Format: Paperback
Findley has researched his subject carefully and is in a personal position to know what he's talking about. The American-Isreali relationship richly deserves the close scrutiny he has given it in this book. A must read for anyone interested in the current situation in the Middle East.

5.0 out of 5 starsIsrael's Wrong-Doings Towards Palestinians and Americans.
By A Customer on February 24, 1998
Format: Paperback
Findley's book represents a very fine introduction any person could have to the topic of Israel, Palestine and the United States. It covers almost all major historical points of the conflict, as well as Israeli-American relations and the Israeli Lobby. Findley's goal is to present the many wrong doings of Israel toward Palestinians, Arabs, AND Americans; he certainly is not trying to present a balanced view on the topic. This book is an alternative to the view presented by Western media which, in my view, is almost dedicated to vindicating Israel from most of its wrong doings.
In the introduction Findley explains how, countrary to what is being presented to the public, the Israeli left (Labor) is actually more dangerous than the right (Likud) in the sense that both work towards the same goals (e.g. increase illegal settlements), but while the right does it in-your-face style, the left preach one thing while doing the other. In the book, Findley also talks about the many Arab initiatives for peace offers and how Israel turned them all down as they included the return of Israel to the June 4th, 1967 line to which Israel opposes.
Many times the breadth covered in the book limits the depth of the addressed issue. On the whole however, for a beginner who gets his news from the usual sources: CBS, CNN, NBC, ABC, U.S News & World Report, NY Times, Washington Post, Findley's book is the missing link and a major hole filler. Most of the issues discussed in it are rarely, or addressed only in-the-passing in the main stream. These include: Israeli attack on the USS Liberty and the U.S. refusal to conduct a propper followup investigation, Israeli cooperation with Apartheid S.Read more ›
