The book was identified as ‘The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917-2017’ by former Columbia University prof and PLO affiliate Rashid Khalidi.

US President Joe Biden was spotted on Friday leaving a bookstore with a copy of a tendentious history book that paints Israel as a colonial imposition on the “indigenous Palestinian” population.
The lame-duck president left a Massachusetts bookstore holding a copy of “The Hundred Years’ War on Palestine: A History of Settler Colonialism and Resistance, 1917-2017” by former Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi. It is one of the most popular academic volumes laying out the “Palestinian” narrative.

The book calls Israel a settler colonial apartheid country. Khalidi also justified the Oct. 7th massacre and called it legitimate resistance. pic.twitter.com/x8tS920edc

Formerly affiliated with the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO), Khalidi has a track record of endorsing Palestinian terrorism and dismissing the notion that anti-Israeli activism can be linked to antisemitism.
Columnist Daniel Greenfield in FrontPage Magazine noted that Biden’s move appeared to be an Obama-influenced tactic to signal “that another realignment on Israel is about to be forced.”
“One of Obama’s little pseudointellectual gimmicks was very visibly holding topical books to send a signal ahead of a policy intifada. One of those infamous moments came when he was showing off Fareed Zakaria’s ‘The Post-American World.’
A photograph captured Barack Obama reading a book about “a Muslim’s view of a defeated America.”
Who agrees that Barack Obama was the beginning of the decline of our country as we knew it⁉️

“Obama’s exit strategy involved going after Israel in 2016 in order to force another realignment. Carrying around an anti-Israel book is a topical signal that another realignment on Israel is about to be forced. It’s not how Biden’s people would normally signal this. It’s how Obama’s people would. We know their objective.
“It’s the diplomatic recognition of an Islamic terrorist state inside Israel,” he wrote.
Barack Obama took a class w/ Edward Said as a Columbia undergrad.
Obama later befriended Rashid Khalidi as they both taught @ UChicago.
Khalidi later became Edward Said Prof of Modern Arab Studies @ Columbia & author of the book Biden just got.
