The author has delivered a powerful rendering of the last century's history in a manner that utterly dismantles the current narrative. In a compelling way, the author brings to life the deep truth about the Palestine Question and shines a light on the innumerable instances in which the Arabs chose badly. We are where we are in the region not because of colonialism but because of a centuries long desire to destroy the Jewish people. It's well past time for the world to wake up to this.
