Title: An extremely helpful book
Review: This book is a wonderful introduction to the conflict -- like having a knowledgeable friend tell you what's really going on. It's so hard to trust a lot of the rhetoric. So often any principled criticism of Israel is dismissed as anti-semitic, as you can see in some of the wackier reviews on this page, so it's hard to find out what's really going on unless you read the Israeli papers, which are a lot more fair. Richard Ben Cramer is a great writer and is hard on BOTH sides. He cuts through so many myths, and his writing is always a pleasure to read.
