"The most eloquent writer on Palestinian history" reveals the myths and reality behind the state of Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict (New Statesman). The outspoken and radical Israeli historian Ilan Pappe examines the most contested ideas concerning the origins and identity of the contemporary state of Israel. The "ten myths"--repeated endlessly in the media, enforced by the military, and accepted without question by the world's governments--reinforce the regional status quo and include: - Palestine was an empty land at the time of the Balfour Declaration.
- The Jews were a people without a land.
- There is no difference between Zionism and Judaism.
- Zionism is not a colonial project of occupation.
- The Palestinians left their Homeland voluntarily in 1948.
- The June 1967 War was a war of 'No Choice'.
- Israel is the only Democracy in the Middle East.
- The Oslo Mythologies
- The Gaza Mythologies
- The Two-State Solution For students, activists, and anyone interested in better understanding the news, Ten Myths About Israel is another groundbreaking study of the Israel-Palestine conflict from the author of The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine.
