Summary
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.

Essential reading
Very well distilled, accessible and powerful account of a very complex issue. It serves as a good entry point into the history of this conflict. A harrowing (but important) narrative.

History repeats again and again
I appreciate the way every sentence is documented, references to archives, names, locations and really detailed information on numbers and facts. It has helped me to have a factual perspective of the current situation. No opinions added, only the display of documented facts.

Eye opening for anyone wanting to cut through the noise
I was recommended this book by a colleague when I wanted to understand the history of this long conflict in Israel and Palestine. Pape is methodical and searing in his analysis. He puts takes forward all narratives from Israeli archives and historians to regional Arab archives to Palestinian academic historians to discuss the different points to view and distill a clear picture of the events of the conception of the state of Israel. It puts much of today’s conflict in clear perspective.
Essential reading for anyone interested in the region and today’s world politics.

Learnt a lot of factual historical references
This book is great for anyone who wants to learn about the history & genocide that has taken place in Palestine by the hands of the Apartheid state. Also highlights the other government who are complicit in the ongoing ethnical cleansing of the indigenous Palestinians..
Israel is not a democracy but ‘the only Apartheid state in the Middle East’
