Writing

He has written for USA Today,^[5] the Los Angeles Times,^[6] The Hill,^[7]^[8]^[9] and the Huffington Post.^[10]^[11] In a September 2010 article for USA Today, Ruebner criticized continued Israeli settlement building activity during negotiations with Palestinians by stating that: “Palestinians paradoxically will still be expected to negotiate statehood with Israel while Israel — with the full support of the United States in the form of $3 billion per year in military aid — continues to gobble up the territory designated for a Palestinian state."^[5]

His book Shattered Hopes: Obama’s Failure to Broker Israeli-Palestinian Peace was published in August 2013.^[1]^[12] The book analyzed the Obama administration’s failed strategy to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and his view that they were unwilling to challenge the Israel lobby. In her review of the book, Nadia Hijab called the book an "essential contribution to the subject."^[13]
