They turned to an aggressively hostile attitude, which provoked wars and spread this thinking to the rest of the Arab world.The reasons for this are many: political, cultural, and religious. Hence, an unfeasibility exists for a peaceful way to settle the conflict and search for alternative solutions.\u003cem\u003eThe Vanity of Conversion Therapy: The Delusion of Metastasizing Israeli Arabs \u003c\/em\u003ecovers the period since Israel was founded in 1948 to present day.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e(About the Author)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRaphael Israeli has taught Islamic, Chinese, and Middle Eastern history at Hebrew University in Jerusalem.
