Zionist Diplomacy

How Israel Found Its Place Among the Nations

By: Ambassador Ron Prosor

Narrated by: Peter Lerman

The riveting story of the most audacious diplomatic enterprise of the last century—creating and securing the Jewish state—as seen through the eyes of the foremost Israeli diplomat of our generation.

Zionist Diplomacy tells the untold story of how the Jewish people used diplomacy to restore their ancient homeland and build a modern nation—the State of Israel—and continue to do so today. Filled with behind-the-scenes accounts of key moments in history—the Balfour Declaration, the UN partition plan, and the fall of the Soviet Union—Ambassador Ron Prosor offers his unique perspective of the Zionist movement's top diplomatic figures, including Theodor Herzl, Chaim Weizmann, Abba Eban, and Shimon Peres. He then explores the diplomatic challenges and triumphs facing Israel across his three decades in top diplomatic posts—in Washington, London, Berlin, and at the United Nations—and what Israeli diplomacy must do to thrive in a post-October 7 era.
