Reviews
Ilan Pappe is Israel’s bravest, most principled, most incisive historian.
One of the most prominent Israeli political dissidents living in exile … He is also one of the few Israeli students of the conflict who write about the Palestinian side with real knowledge and empathy.
Along with Edward Said, Ilan Pappe is the most eloquent writer of Palestinian history.

Ten Myths About Israel is a useful primer for people just becoming familiar with the Palestinian liberation struggle – but it is far more than that. It is also a valuable tool for veteran organizers seeking to explain cogently and simply how Israel’s foundational myths and ongoing propaganda perpetuate the oppression of the Palestinian people.

This book is an absolute must for an interested public, the political and the media class to understand what Israel is all about.
