Shalom Pollack includes 68 compelling articles in this book, "Jews, Israelis and Arabs", commenting on events in Israel.

Spanning 50 years as an observer to the challenges of the Jewish state, he concludes that "Identity" is the key one for Israel; how its citizens define themselves.

Pollack writes, "Once our identity as a Jewish country and people is established; once the 'who' and 'why' is clear, the 'how' will proceed."

Pollack also includes the names of more than 1,500 people who were murdered by the perpetrators of terrorism since the Oslo Accords were signed in 1993, as well as maps showing the size and changing borders of Israel.
