The Middle East has undergone vast, often sudden changes since World War I, and this lack of stability leads to conflict. But while the political situation in Israel and Palestine is complex, peace is not impossible. Wahat al-Salam/Neve Shalom (Oasis of Peace), an intentional community of Jews and Palestinians (Christians and Muslims), has become known the world over for its unique approach to conflict and interfaith dialogue. Receiving tens of thousands of visitors a year, this community has learned what it means to live in harmony despite long-standing differences between cultures and deep-seated strife in the surrounding area. Despite its success, little has been written about the Oasis of Peace-until now. Rayek R. Rizek, one of its founding members, has served his community in government, public relations, and now the written word. In a memoir that is not to be missed, Rizek pulls back the curtain on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and demonstrates that, with fellowship and diligence, even entrenched discord can be overcome. Rabbi Dr. Marc Gopin of George mason University, Arlington VA, wrote: Rayek Rizek's Masterful Volume is a unique contribution to the story of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict like none I have ever read before. I have been studying, writing and working inside this conflict for 32 years. Never have I seen this combination of insights about the past, the presence and the future, about the self in the context of conflict, about the central importance of story, the taking of personal responsibility, and the inescapable unity of the land and its peoples. If you seek a spell-binding story, an odyssey into the soul, and a beacon of hope beyond war, enter here. Emeritus Professor Oliver Ramsbotham of Bradford University UK, wrote: Rayek Rizek's book is essential reading, not only for those wanting to find out about the unique Oasis of Peace voluntary experiment in Jewish/Palestinian cohabitation, where the author has lived for 33 years, but also about the wider conflict. The Anteater and the Jaguar is that rare thing - a book that offers the reader the fruits of a lifetime of action, study and commitment by a principled and highly impressive participator.

Meg looked about. The cloud forest had enfolded her as a blossom closes with the coming of night...In the undergrowth to her side a large spotted form moved cautiously in harmony with Meg. Oddly, she felt a sense of calm. Slowly, Meg walked toward it. "Come to me," it said. "Let me show you all that the forest has to offer. Wampang will help." A giant blue butterfly appeared at her shoulder and whispered in her ear. "Wait," Meg said as it flew away. "What were you saying? I almost understood." "It is Niawa the jaguar," a human voice said and Meg started. "Wampang was trying to tell you that you should be careful with jaguars. They rule the forest." Meg O'Connell, a single mom with a rebellious teenage daughter, is suddenly snatched from her comfortable suburban life, drawn to the Peruvian Amazon by a quest she could never have imagined, the search for her sister's head. In a rattling peque-peque, chugging up a muddy river, Meg will find the only person who can possibly help her, an anguished gun toting Jesuit priest who barely clings to the basic tenets of the Catholic faith. Together, they will discover much more than either had ever intended.
