First published in 1976, After the Guns Fall Silent is an important Arab statement on the Middle East crisis. The central theme is that the October war and détente fundamentally changed the basis of the conflict. The Arab military success and the impact of the oil weapon established a parity between Arab quantity and Israel quality. This new sense of equality has forced both sides into contemplating dialogue rather than unyielding confrontation. The author also predicts that the Palestinian issue is expected to become even more explosive as their advance in diplomatic stature has not produced any political or territorial gain and their struggle has become a world inspiration for the revolt of the dispossessed against the affluent. This book will be of interest to students of history, political science, international relations and Middle Eastern studies.
