challenging dark emotional informative fast-paced

5.0

This book is often very dry, but it should be required for anyone who wants to comment on the tensions in the Middle East where Israel is a concerned party. This book details Israeli political plans and attitudes towards Palestinian lands and people from 1947 onwards and provides context for today’s current climate between the colonial state of Israel and the indigenous populations of Palestine.
