- More about Hijacking the Arab-Israeli Conflict
The importance of reclaiming the scholarly language of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is emphasized, as it has been hijacked by politicized fads and distorted terms, distorting the academic study of Israel, Palestinians, and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This book explores the linkage between language and thought, focusing on how a delegitimizing lexicon of terms and concepts is often used in anti-Zionist scholarship.

The significance of reclaiming the academic language used to discuss the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is paramount, as it has been infiltrated by politicized trends that distort the standards of evidence and open inquiry across various disciplines, including Middle Eastern Studies, Women and Gender Studies, and Ethnic Studies. These trends have been wielded by scholar-activists, many of whom lack proficiency in Hebrew and have limited experience in Israel, resulting in the widespread distortion of crucial terms. The pervasiveness of this distortion has reached a point where it is challenging to recall the original meanings of these terms. Moreover, the dissolution of a vocabulary of historical explanation into today's crude value judgments and unhinged polemics distorts the academic study of Israel, Palestinians, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and, more broadly, politics.
Hijacking the Arab-Israeli Conflict emphasizes the prevalence of a delegitimizing lexicon of terms and concepts in highly politicized anti-Zionist scholarship. This book specifically focuses on this linkage between language and thought, as it has long been a central concern in political theory and philosophy. The chapters included in this volume were originally published as a special issue of Israel Affairs, further highlighting the importance of reclaiming the academic discourse surrounding this complex and contentious region.
