Author Description

Banging on the Walls of the Tank is a collection of reflections and analysis written over eighteen years in Gaza by Palestinian academic and activist, Haidar Eid. Providing an insider’s perspective on the blockade of Gaza since 2007, the Israeli attacks in 2009, 2012, 2014, and 2021, the Great March of Return, and the ongoing genocide committed by the apartheid Israeli state, Eid’s essays examine political alternatives, opportunities for resistance, and prospects for a just peace after more than a century of dispossession.
