good intro to the topic. runs you through the lies israel cycles thru to maintain their cruelty. it's historically dense, however, so it was a bit hard to keep track of certain people and organizations. if you're looking to start reading up on palestine, i'd recommend starting with The Punishment of Gaza by Gideon Levy. i'd follow up with this book for a short, yet thorough, history of abuse.

I found the way that he navigated explaining the history of the region confusing — I think it would have been better in chronological order with the 10 myths and the counterpoints separate. That said, he nails the tone & I appreciate the final chapters’ calls for one state and equal protection under the law, from the river to the sea.
