Tony Greenstein on Yitzhak Laor's The Myths of Liberal Zionism

Tamar Shlaim15 September 2010

Tony Greenstein has written an long, in-depth and hard-hitting review of Yitzhak Laor's The Myths of Liberal Zionism for the Weekly Worker which claims that "Laor does not merely demolish the political credibility of Amos Oz: he also destroys his literary reputation."

The Myths of Liberal Zionism is a breathless surge of anger, a tirade directed not only at what Zionism has created, but at the duplicity and two-facedness of the west's favourite Israeli literary ‘peaceniks'—Amos Oz, David Grossman and AB Yehoshua - who use their undeserved liberal reputation in order to strengthen the racist Zionist project.
