Summary:

This book provides pioneering research on the rhetorical characteristics of Arab political discourse in Israel. It shows how such politicians, especially Arab Members of the Knesset (MKs), use a variety of lively rhetorical devices in order to convey their messages, to promote their ideological positions and to criticize the Israeli government's policies, which discriminate against Israeli Arabs and the Palestinian people and deprives them of their rights. It argues that the rhetorical devices used in this discourse possess unique features which contribute to focusing and structuring the message, in order to highlight the plight of Israeli Arabs and the Palestinian people, to impact positively on the Israeli government's discriminatory policies towards them, to emotionally manipulate the government and to bring about a significant change in its attitude towards them.
