Joan Peters
Joan Peters (née Friedman; April 29, 1936 – January 5, 2015), later Caro,〔(Joan Caro, author of controversial 'From Time Immemorial,' dies at 78 ) Haaretz 8 January n2015.〕 was the author of the best-selling, controversial, 1984 book ''From Time Immemorial'', in which she argued that Palestinians are largely not indigenous to modern Israel and therefore do not have a claim to its territory.〔http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n83213065〕 The book was criticized by some scholars such as Norman Finkelstein.,〔Norman Finkelstein.(''Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict 2nd Edition'' ). Verso Books, 2003 p.21-46〕 Noam Chomsky, Edward Said〔(Mrs. Peters’s Palestine ) New York Review Of Books January 16, 1986〕 and Yehoshua Porath, who attacked the book as "ludicrous", "worthless" and a "forgery".
Peters wrote in the 1970s and early 1980s for magazines such as ''Harper's'', ''Commentary'', ''The New Republic'', and ''The New Leader'', and was a consultant in the creation of TV news documentaries for CBS in 1973 regarding the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and provided commentary on the subject for PBS.〔http://ijhs.org/honorary.html〕 Her dedication to the cause of Israel may have been triggered by a visit in the 1970s to the Soviet Union, where officials treated her and her husband with suspicion.〔
According to the Walker Agency which booked speaking and touring engagements for her, Peters also served as an adviser to the White House on American foreign policy in the Middle East during the Carter administration.〔(Joan Peters' profile at Harry Walker Speakers' Agency )〕 She died at her home in Chicago in 2015 of a cerebral embolism.〔Daniel E. Slotnik (January 12, 2015). ("Joan Peters, Journalist Who Wrote on Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, Dies at 78" ) ''The New York Times''. Accessed ''January 13, 2015''〕〔http://www.jpost.com/Opinion/A-eulogy-to-an-inspiration-Joan-Peters-386962〕 Shortly before her death, the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, Ron Prosor, had telephoned to convey to her that Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu was deeply grateful for her important contribution to the Jewish people and the State of Israel.〔
