Renowned Israeli historian Ilan Pappe's groundbreaking book revisits the formation of the State of Israel. Between 1947 and 1949, over 400 Palestinian villages were deliberately destroyed, civilians were massacred, and around a million men, women, and children were expelled from their homes at gunpoint.
Denied for almost six decades, had it happened today it could only have been called "ethnic cleansing." Decisively debunking the myth that the Palestinian population left of their own accord in the course of this war, Ilan Pappe offers impressive archival evidence to demonstrate that, from its very inception, a central plank in Israel's founding ideology was the forcible removal of the indigenous population. This is an indispensable book for anyone interested in the current crisis in the Middle East.

Noget af en øjenåbner - særligt fordi massakrerne og den etniske udrensning lige nu gen-udspiller sig i de besatte områder. Bogen gør op med Vestens kollektive fortrængning af det faktum, at staten Israel er grundlagt på overlagt folkemord og etnisk udrensning.

This book is just an eye opener and mind blowing, because of its revelling a hidden part of history here in the west

Bogen er et mesterværk inden for moderne historieskrivning og gør op med de løgne, som staten Israel er funderet på.
