Israel’s 2009 invasion of Gaza was an act of aggression that killed over a thousand Palestinians and devastated the infrastructure of an already impoverished enclave. The Punishment of Gaza shows how the ground was prepared for the assault and documents its continuing effects. From 2005—the year of Gaza’s “liberation”—through to 2009, Levy tracks the development of Israel policy, which has abandoned the pretense of diplomacy in favor of raw military power, the ultimate aim of which is to deny Palestinians any chance of forming their own independent state. Punished by Israel and the Quartet of international powers for the democratic election of Hamas, Gaza has been transformed into the world’s largest open-air prison. From Gazan families struggling to cope with the random violence of Israel’s blockade and its “targeted” assassinations, to the machinations of legal experts and the continued connivance of the international community, every aspect of this ongoing tragedy is eloquently recorded and forensically analyzed. Levy’s powerful journalism shows how the brutality at the heart of Israel’s occupation of Palestine has found its most complete expression to date in the collective punishment of Gaza’s residents.

Produktbeschreibungen

Pressestimmen

“There are more terrible atrocities in the world than what is being done to the caged prisoners of Gaza, but it is not easy to think of a more cruel and cowardly exhibition of human savagery, fully supported by the US, with Europe trailing politely behind. Gideon Levy’s passionate and revealing account is an eloquent, even desperate, call to bring this shocking tragedy to an end, as can easily be done.”—Noam Chomsky

“Levy has a way with words that leads him to some brilliant indictments of Israel.”—Asa Winstanley, Electronic Intifada

“Levy has made it his exclusive mission ... to document the grim and brutal facts of the occupation, to tell the stories he knows Israelis do not want to hear ... To this shiny nation—democratic, prosperous, confident in its righteousness—Levy holds up Gaza like a mirror.”—Ben Ehrenreich, Nation

“Gideon Levy is among a small group of Israeli journalists giving a face and a voice to Palestinians in the world’s most intractable conflict.”—Irwin Block, Montreal Gazette

“Levy ... deals with the politically and emotionally charged subject of the hardships of Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza, and their conflicts with the Israeli military and Jewish settlers.”—Am Johal, Rabble.ca

“The story of Gideon Levy—and the attempt to deride, suppress or deny his words—is the story of Israel distilled. If he loses, Israel itself is lost.”—Johann Hari, Independent

“An Israeli dedicated to saving his country’s honour.”—Nick Lezard, Guardian

Über den Autor und weitere Mitwirkende

Described by Le Monde as a “thorn in Israel’s flank”, Gideon Levy is a prominent Israeli journalist. For over twenty years he has covered the Israel–Palestine conflict, in particular the occupation of Gaza and the West Bank, for the Israeli newspaper Ha’aretz in his column “Twilight Zone.”

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 18. April 2013

Verifizierter Kauf

Dass was uns täglich im Fernsehen gezeigt wird, ist nur eine Seite des Storys, und zwar die Seite die den "grossen" gut gefällt. Es geht hier um echte Journalismus, vom feinsten Art.
Es ist tatsächlich eine kronologische Zusammenfassung von Artikeln, die das Israel-Gaza Konflikt aus eine andere Perspektive darstellt....und die ist an manche stelle grausam...
Ein Buch voller Emotionen, sollte man jeder lesen der hinter Kulissen einen Einblick werfen möchte.

Wow, this book was better than I thought it would be.

Rezension aus Deutschland vom 21. Dezember 2016

And I can also say that if you are a staunch Israel defender, than this book is a pure nightmare, especially considered what is still true today. And there were several examples of that.
What the author wrote in 2008 about Europe and how it seems to let Israel get away with far too much and becomes more and more a puppet of the USA is still true today. The actually social parties won't even speak out about the committed crimes, no wonder the right wingers get more power. And all this despite the growing public discontent with Israel, and I doubt the ones in power do not know this.
Also I would say that looking back now, 7 years after the author wrote on whether Obama would be a true friend of Israel and not what high Israeli politicians call a friend (as they did with Bush) I think you can safely say that they didn't need to worry as Obama's foreign policy is not that different from Bush and even when he wants to do something, there are tons of US politics willing to help Israel with everything they ask for.
Another thing that is sadly still up to date now is that Israel's militarism didn't stop or weaken Hamas, not then, not last year, not today. It only strengthened them each time. And Netanyahu and his ilk are too dumb or careless to realize that.
And make no mistake, the author is a staunch patriot and you notice that in all of his articles he wrote/collected in this book, but he is the sort of patriot that is the first to say when he things something goes wrong in his country and you notice how passionate he is with this book.
I wish I had read some of the articles and statements the author responds to on his own here. Reading those could be really interesting.
He also had a good grasp on the psychology of war and "us vs. them" when he writes:
<i>Most of the soldiers who took part in the assault on Gaza are youths with morals. Some of them will volunteer for any mission. They will escort an old woman across the street or rescue earthquake victims. But in Gaza, when faced with the "inhuman" Palestinians, the package will always be suspicious, the brainwashing will be stupefying and the core principles will change.</i>
That is not something many people would want to hear and like I said, ueberfans of Israel would not like the authors last article here about scorn about the world and the lack of Israeli self-criticism, especially when he writes this:
<i>So why should we worry? It's true that the world is beginning to scowl at Israel. But so what? Israelis are convinced that the world hates us anyway. As long as we are not deprived of the world's pleasures, there is no reason to worry.</i>

"The only war in history against a strip of land enclosed by a fence"

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 1. Februar 2011

Verifizierter Kauf

That is how Gideon Levy characterizes the Gaza War of December 2008 and January 2009. Levy is a journalist for the Israeli newspaper "Haaretz". For twenty years he has covered the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, in particular the occupation of Gaza and the West Bank. This slim book is a collection of his columns on the Israeli treatment of the Gaza Strip after the withdrawal of Israeli forces (the supposed "liberation" of Gaza) in September 2005 through the summer of 2009.

I am somewhat ambivalent about the book. I value it as an alternative to the abysmal mainstream media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian quagmire here in the U.S., but I sense that it too veers away, in the other direction, from sober objectivity (both in intent and effect).

In the U.S., the end of the Israeli military occupation of Gaza was much ballyhooed. But Levy, in THE PUNISHMENT OF PALESTINE, argues that Israeli withdrawal "did almost nothing to change the living conditions for the residents of the Strip":

"Gaza is still a prison, and its inhabitants are still doomed to live in poverty and oppression. Israel closes them off from the sea, the air and land, except for a limited safety valve at the Rafah crossing [into Egypt]. * * * Gaza has no chance of escaping its poverty under these conditions. Nobody will invest in it. Israel locked the cage, threw away the keys and left the residents to their bitter fate."

And matters then got worse, culminating in the Gaza War. Actually, as Levy points out, "war" is an example of Orwellian distortion of language in the interest of political misinformation. It certainly was not "an armed clash between armies." The staggering disparity in firepower is highlighted by the disparity in deaths - around 100 Palestinian deaths (about one-third of them children) for each of the thirteen Israelis who were killed. Although within Israel it was celebrated with all of the usual trappings of patriotic wars, in reality it was, as Levy quotes one senior officer, "a superb call-up and training exercise." And, in line with the title of Levy's book, it was one more step - a rather harsh one - in the punishment of Gaza.

Levy is at his best when he deals in the realm of facts, including the numerous accounts of the "collateral damage" - the children, women, and nose-to-the-grindstone apolitical men who have been killed or maimed simply because their unfortunate lot in life was to be among the caged Palestinians of Gaza. (Footnote: Israel made it much more difficult for Levy and his colleagues to report on those facts when it barred Israeli journalists from entering Gaza in late 2006.) Levy's political criticism is at its strongest when he rebukes Israel for ignoring or (at best) being disingenuous about that collateral damage. But, aside from the repeated injunction "STOP!", Levy does not really offer any proposals. And his moral outrage becomes shrill and even, I fear, unfair (as, for example, when he criticizes Amos Oz and David Grossman).

The book suffers somewhat from being a collection of forty newspaper columns. In a column, rhetorical overstatement and emotional appeals are both natural and expected. When repeated forty times in succession, however, that mode of discourse is rather mind-numbing. Still, Levy tells us things that have been ignored by most of the U.S. media and he gives us an idea of what life is like in Gaza - something anyone who deems herself a humanitarian should be familiar with, regardless of her views on which side is more to blame.

A truly harrowing account of what happened in Gaza

Rezension aus dem Vereinigten Königreich vom 19. Mai 2011

Verifizierter Kauf

Written by a self-described Israeli patriot this short book covers what happened in Gaza during the years 2006 to 2009 inclusively . Each essay-like chapter is dated to it`s one-day of narrative and covers an incident not only as it happens through the author`s eyes but also put into it`s historic perspective and context. The result of this is quite extraordinary in it`s depth and feeling of being close in each case to the Palestinian participants who are all named and detailed backgrounds are given.Surely it is unprecedented for a journalist from the opposition side to become so close to his subjects under some of the war conditions that prevail throughout these chapters in a seemingly endless recital.
A book I am glad to have purchased from Amazon and which has certainly enlightened me on many aspects of Israeli policy and pre-emptive actions towards the Gaza strip and it`s 1.5 million inhabitants. As Johann Hari says of the author Gideon Levy , he is perhaps the most heroic man in Israel today.

Israel needs more voices of truth like Gideon Levy!

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 18. Dezember 2018

Verifizierter Kauf

Gideon Levy is a brave, honest, good man who in a way, is possibly the most patriotic Israeli I know of. Not a blind patriot, but one who is legitimately concerned with the moral rot of his home & doesn't want it to be corrupt with power, genocide and supremacy. A writer who's not scared to tell it like it is, and willing to risk his reputation by standing up against occupation, illegal settlement growth, & drunken power formed by US blank checks, to save his beloved Israel from destroying itself. The world could use many more Gideon Levy's to stand up for justice & human decency.

Tells it like it is

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 15. Januar 2013

Verifizierter Kauf

This is how it really is, first-hand. The negative reviews here are from "Israel right or wrong" folk who are really criticizing Levy for exposing it. They are the equivalent of hyper-patriotic Americans who criticized those who exposed the My Lai massacre in Viet Nam, or who exposed the abuse at Abu Ghraib in Iraq. Or mid-19th century Americans who criticized those who told the truth about the Mexican War - like Abraham Lincoln saying it was the Mexicans who were defending their homes and hearths not the Americans, or Ulysses S. Grant saying it was one of the most unjust wars ever waged by a stronger against a weaker nation. Just as they were true American patriots, Gideon Levy is a true Israeli patriot. He should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.

The poignant self examination

Rezension aus den Vereinigten Staaten vom 12. November 2010

Verifizierter Kauf

LIke no other Israeli journalist that I'm aware of(with the exception of Amiri Dass), Gideon Levy conducts a painful yet necessary examination of Israeli policies toward Gaza which is essentially an examination of the Israeli psyche itself. We find here a psyche that all too often has greatly devalued life for the average citizen in Gaza whether that be by oppressive measures like boycotting after the election of Hamas or the outright siege from late 2008 to the beginning of 2009. Levy may be unique in having the capacity to raising poignant questions and issues which many if not most of his fellow citizens won't even confront.
