Reviews

A former Israeli soldier in Lebanon, Mr Bregman knows his subject first-hand. As an academic at King's College London, he has accumulated copious documents, many of them secret and unpublished. A detailed and well thought-out book.

Ahron Bregman may be one of the most pointedly qualified people on Earth to write a book about the Israeli occupation of Palestine that began in the wake of 1967's Six Day War. Bregman takes his readers through the entire torturous narrative of the Israeli occupation of the captured territories. It's clearly the author's intention to avoid podium-pounding invective in this book, and he succeeds - this is an entirely sober account of an insane and vicious reality.

Bregman's deep familiarity with the material and his stylistic clarity will appeal to readers seeking an overview of the Arab-Israeli conflict.

A plainspoken but urgent account that is deeply critical of Israel's policies.

Bregman tells this bleak story well, and what a catalogue of grief it is. A damning verdict.

It is the best available book on the Israeli occupation of the Territories and why it should be ended ASAP; and one written with the kind of lucidity and insight only somebody who passionately loves his country can muster.--Martin van Creveld, author of The Transformation of War

Mr. Bregman knows his subject first-hand. A detailed and well thought-out book.
