Book Description
Here you will find a rich and varied selection of monologues for women, most of which are from plays which were produced and/or published in the 2017-2018 theatrical season.

Aftershock
Author: David Matas
Publisher: Dundurn
ISBN: 1550025538
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Verbal attacks against Israel for human rights violations have turned into physical attacks against the Jewish community worldwide. How has that happened? This book attempts to explain the phenomenon. Anti-Zionists, whose primary goal is destruction of the State of Israel, use accusations of the worst forms of human rights violations against Israel to delegitimize the state. These accusations criminalize the Jewish population worldwide for actual or presumed support of the State of Israel. The contemporary international human rights system and the existence of the State of Israel are twin legacies of the Holocaust. The failure of the human rights system to prevent attacks on Israel and the Jews is an aftershock of the Holocaust.
