About the Book
Israel, the land of milk and honey, is today deluged by rivers of blood. The Arabs are seeking its destruction, and the world sits idly by watching in silent complicity.
Israel's problem is not, according to Mati Alon, stubborn intransigence, but the refusal of the world, especially the United States, to accept the Jewish people's inalienable right to a homeland. This situation is sensitively and comprehensively analyzed in Mati Alon's brave new book, The Unavoidable Surgery.
Mati Alon examines all aspects of Israel's plight: the results of the Yom Kippur War, the lack of modern leaders, the refugee problem, terrorism, the liberated territories, new settlements, and Jews in the Diaspora. Mr. Alon is not afraid to make bold suggestions: he calls on Jews everywhere to come to the aid of their homeland, Israel. For these are trying times indeed, and Israel must fight valiantly, as she always has, if she is to remain in existence.
When will it all stop? When will Jews be free to live in peace in their homeland? Haven't they waited long enough? But the time now is not a time for waiting, but one that requires action. The Unavoidable Surgery is a book that must be read by every person concerned with world peace.

He later graduated from the Technion (Israel Institute of Technology) with B.S., M.S., and P.E. degrees in mechanical engineering. Mr. Alon taught at the Technion for a while, then moved to the United States, where he worked as a mechanical engineer at the University of Illinois Medical Center.
