{"product_id":"from-titus-to-trump-yaakov-yanky-greenspan-9798672936635","title":"From Titus To Trump: Israeli Foreign Policy and Diplomacy Through the Prism of Relations with Foreign Heads of State","description":"Throughout history, great Jewish leaders have engaged in faith-based diplomacy to liaise with their international counterparts - advocating for their people's interests, contributing to the betterment of their interlocutors' countries, and forging lasting alliances to yield mutual benefit. In this revised paperback format of this historical publication, first time author and independent public affairs professional Yaakov 'Yanky' Greenspan presents a comprehensive overview of some of the most significant interpersonal relations between heads of state in Jewish and Israeli history.Contrasting the current Trump administration - which Greenspan contends has been the most beneficial US foreign policy towards Israel in recent memory - with the rancor and ill-will that dominated the Obama\/Netanyahu relationship, the author questions what factors make for successful relations between Jewish and foreign leaders and which hinder them.Finally, the author looks back to two important epochs for the Jewish people in the Ancient World - and investigates whether any parallels can be drawn between modern times and the relations between the ancient Roman leaders Antoninus, who is mentioned in the Talmud for his friendship with Rabbi Yehuda HaNasi, and Titus, who led a military campaign that culminated in the destruction of the Second Temple. In this highly original and thoughtful political and historical analysis, the author asks hard questions about what factors lead to successful relations on the global stage and which do not.Poised at a momentous time in its geopolitical history, this e-book is a must-read for anybody interested in investigating how interpersonal dynamics between Israeli\/Jewish and foreign leaders can have far-reaching repercussions - that have caused echos throughout both the ancient and modern worlds.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yaakov Yanky Greenspan\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 8672936639\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798672936635\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/15\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.17lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.11d","brand":"Yaakov Yanky Greenspan","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44058488799487,"sku":"9798672936635","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_81100293-4653-4edd-a8ed-3c5660eebf7a.jpg?v=1685052852","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/from-titus-to-trump-yaakov-yanky-greenspan-9798672936635","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
