The book deals with the origin of the Palestine problem and the British and U.S. diplomacy responsible for wiping out Palestine from the world map by creating Israel. Palestinians were condemned to be either under Israeli colonial occupation or refugees in the neighbouring countries. Such a situation gave rise to Palestinian resistance movement spearheaded by guerilla groups like Al-Fatah, PFLP, DFLP, Al-saiqa, Arab Liberation Front, PFLP (General Command) and various other groups under the Palestine Liberation Organisation. Special highlights of the book are: diplomacy through guerilla warfare, diplomacy with frontline Arab states, intifada (uprising) as a tool of diplomacy to achieve Palestine state, Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), the Oslo accord diplomacy, the triangular diplomacy of the US, Israel and Palestinian Authority, failure of the final status negotiations at Camp David, Clinton’s last-ditch diplomacy, intifada II, September 11 attack, Palestinian cause hijacked by Osama bin Laden, Bush diplomacy to establish a Palestine State, "clash of civilisations", war against terror, a theological debate on Islam and terrorism and the future scenario of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The book is the most comprehensive and in-depth study of the Palestine problem that has been written so far.
