Jordan Daily – The acclaimed book State of Palestine NOW by award-winning Palestinian journalist Daoud Kuttab is now available in English, German, and French, along with a newly released audiobook edition.
The French release is particularly timely, coinciding with President Emmanuel Macron’s pledge to recognize the State of Palestine during a high-level conference in Cairo this June.
Published by Amazon, the 240-page book — subtitled “Practical and Logical Arguments for the Best Way to Bring Peace to the Middle East” — presents a compelling case for the immediate recognition of Palestine. Blending political insight with personal storytelling, Kuttab outlines a clear and achievable roadmap for peace based on the two-state solution.
In the foreword, Dr. Varsen Aghabekian Shahin, Minister of State for Foreign Affairs and Expatriates of Palestine, calls Kuttab “an accomplished journalist whose coverage of the two intifadas was exceptional,” adding “This book, full of personal anecdotes, humanizes the Palestinian narrative. It highlights our people’s struggle for self-determination. An independent state on the June 4, 1967 lines is essential for peace. Any plan that ignores this has failed.”
Shahin emphasizes that State of Palestine NOW is not theoretical, but a practical guide — urging world leaders to turn their rhetoric on Palestine into concrete policy.
Kuttab tackles complex challenges head-on, offering pragmatic solutions to issues like the right of return for Palestinians, Jerusalem, and illegal settlements. The final chapter lays out actionable steps that can be implemented immediately to advance Palestinian statehood.
As momentum builds across Europe and beyond, State of Palestine NOW is a timely, essential read for policymakers, journalists, diplomats, and engaged global citizens committed to justice and peace.
