They have cast Israel as the regional villain, bearing sole responsibility for the cycle of violence in the Middle east since 1946. This text takes issue with these "revisionists." The author argues that they have ignored or misinterpreted much documentation in developing their analysis of Israel's history. There are numerous in-depth studies to illustrate the author's argument. |
