About this listen

For nearly 20 years, Aaron David Miller has played a central role in U.S. efforts to broker Arab-Israeli peace. His position as an advisor to presidents, secretaries of state, and national security advisors has given him a unique perspective on a problem that American leaders have wrestled with for more than half a century: Why has the world's greatest superpower failed to find a solution for peace in the Middle East?

Here is an insider's view of the peace process, filled with unforgettable behind-the-scenes stories and interviews with all the key players as they disclose the inner thoughts and strategies that motivated them. The result is a book which shatters preconceived notions about tackling the complicated issues of culture, religion, domestic politics, and national security that have defined - and often derailed - a half century of diplomacy.

Critic reviews

"Miller's writing is both approachable and deeply smart; this and his absolute failure to take sides mean that this work will doubtlessly influence and enrage - and certainly inspire." ( Publishers Weekly)

An honest assessment from inside the rooms

Miller goes through the years and administrations, with every step of the "peace process". He's got the backstory on every diplomatic success and failure, why we're where we were when he wrote it in 2007, (which hasn't changed much by now in 2024), and what needs to happen for lasting peace. A must-read for anyone who wants to understand the Israeli - Palestinian conflict.

Painful

Painful to listen in 2024 when the Israel-Hamas war rages. But necessary context and history.
