What happens when the grandson of one of Israel’s founding fathers — a signer of the Declaration of Independence for the state of Israel — and the son of an Israeli Army general writes a book exposing the truth about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Miko Peled, author of “The General’s Son,” joins The Deen Show to share his extraordinary journey from inside the very heart of the Israeli establishment to becoming one of the most outspoken advocates for Palestinian rights and justice. His testimony carries a weight that no amount of propaganda can dismiss, because it comes from within.
An Insider’s Account of the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
“My grandfather was one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence when the state of Israel was established. My father was an Israeli Army general. I grew up inside the establishment — and what I discovered about what was done to the Palestinian people changed everything.”
Miko Peled’s family credentials are beyond question — his grandfather was a founding father of Israel, a member of the de facto Jewish government before the state was established, and a signer of its Declaration of Independence. His father served as a general in the Israeli Defense Forces. Yet Miko’s personal journey led him to confront uncomfortable truths about the displacement, occupation, and systematic injustice inflicted upon the Palestinian people. His book “The General’s Son” documents this transformation with the credibility that only an insider can bring.

Facts, Not Fiction — Justice for All
“This is not anti-Semitism. This is education. We want the best for all of mankind — and that includes justice for the Palestinian people who have suffered for decades under occupation.”
The Deen Show presents this interview not to promote hatred against any group, but to promote truth and justice — values that Islam holds as sacred. The Quran commands Muslims to stand for justice even if it is against themselves or their own families. Miko Peled exemplifies this principle from the Jewish perspective — speaking truth about his own people’s government for the sake of what is right. His courage should inspire every Muslim and every human being to stand for justice regardless of the personal cost. Get his book “The General’s Son,” invite him to speak in your community, and educate yourself on a conflict that affects millions of our brothers and sisters in humanity.
