"With a searing urgency, Chris Hedges brings readers face to face with Israel's devastation of Gaza. A Genocide Foretold is a scathing denunciation of the long violence of the Zionist project and its U.S. and European backers. The writing reflects his deep experience as a correspondent from Central America to Bosnia and his passionate moral outrage against both war and the hypocrisy that justifies it. Fast-paced and dazzling, the book gives first-hand accounts of the horrors of war and the courage of those resisting it."
--Aviva Chomsky, coeditor of Organizing for Power and author of Central America's Forgotten History

"Chris Hedges profoundly describes exactly what is happening in Palestine and talks on behalf of the victims. In his painful writings, he makes their voices heard. This is genocide as I lived it in Gaza for three months. The book is full of stories, information, and shocking realities. This is not just reporting from there or about them, it is a courageous challenge to all attempts to misinform us about what life looks like in Gaza. Profound, honest, painful, moving and real...the book takes us through history, geography, politics, and news and helps us better understand the Zionist occupation. We cannot escape after learning about it! Chris is telling us: now you know."--Atef Abu Saif, Minister of Culture of Palestine and author of Don't Look Left: A Diary of Genocide
