Alliance and Alienation

By Ohagai Erlikh and Haggi Erlich

The relations between Ethiopia and Israel, until their dramatic severance in the aftermath of the October 1973 War in the Middle East, revolved around issues of regional strategy as well as of ancient religious concepts of identity. For Haile Selassie's Ethiopia, Israel was centrally important. This book follows these relations as they developed along the modern history of the Middle East and Africa, and as they were influenced by ancient Christian, Islamic and Judaic legacies. It attempts to reconstruct the complex relations between the two states.
