About the book
In The Fateful Triangle, written in the aftermath of Israel’s 1982 invasion of Lebanon and the Sabra and Shatila massacre, Noam Chomsky examines the “special relationship” between the United States and Israel and its consequences for the Palestinians.
Chomsky documents how US diplomatic, military and financial support enabled Israeli occupation and aggression, how Washington blocked peace proposals that recognised Palestinian rights, and how American media and intellectuals distorted the record. Updated editions extend the analysis. It remains one of the most influential critiques of US policy on Palestine.
