Ebook About A “fascinating and very moving” (Aaron Sorkin, award-winning screenwriter of The West Wing and The Social Network) chronological timeline spanning from Biblical times to today that explores one of the most interesting countries in the world—Israel.Israel. The small strip of arid land is 5,700 miles away but remains a hot-button issue and a thorny topic of debate. But while everyone seems to have a strong opinion about Israel, how many people actually know the facts? Here to fill in the information gap is Israeli American Noa Tishby. But “this is not your Bubbie’s history book” (Bill Maher, host of Real Time with Bill Maher). Instead, offering a fresh, 360-degree view, Tishby brings her “passion, humor, and deep intimacy” (Yossi Klein Halevi, New York Times bestselling author of Letters to My Palestinian Neighbor) to the subject, creating an accessible and dynamic portrait of a tiny country of outsized relevance. Through bite-sized chunks of history and deeply personal stories, Tishby chronicles her homeland’s evolution, beginning in Biblical times and moving forward to cover everything from WWI to Israel’s creation to the disputes dividing the country today. Tackling popular misconceptions with an abundance of facts, Tishby provides critical context around headline-generating controversies and offers a clear, intimate account of the richly cultured country of Israel.Book Israel: A Simple Guide to the Most Misunderstood Country on Earth Review :
I found this book to be full of heart, information, and facts. It dispels many myths about Israel and it does so unapologetically. There's plenty of examination of Israel's flaws, but unlike many of the books out there, those flaws are put into context. It seems so much of what is written on Israel is hyper-critical--by that I mean picking apart every flaw, including many that exist in all societies, without talking about how things came to be. This book, on the other hand, is written from the standpoint that the Israeli argument is also valid, and it's good (for once) to see *both* sides presented. This gives a balanced factual representation of the history of the state, warts and all. The only thing it does unflinchingly that some might consider unbalanced, is it assumes Israel has a right to be where it is. I know people for whom that would be evidence of Israeli bias. But really, believing that a country has the right not to be destroyed is a basic assumption that is made for every country on earth except for Israel. The author does not take the cowardly path of some texts and allow this to be a debating point. It should not be a debating point in real life, and it is not in this book. But beyond that, the book is full of self-deprecation, history, and yes, also a tiny bit of the Israeli point of view. I found it very refreshing.Also, I see some of the expected reviews by the reflexive Israel-deniers, who use the tired trope "Hasbara talking points" to refer to this book (just to be clear, the whole thing is extremely well-cited). One of the statements there is that Noa Tishby lies when she says that Palestinians left on their own instead of being pushed out. One little problem: she never said that. I'm not surprised the reflexive types didn't actually read this book before reviewing. Here's what she actually said: "Historians still debate exactly how many Arabs fled on their own and how many were pushed out by the Israeli army. And yes, let's be clear: In that war, there were indeed Arabs who got pushed out." She then goes on to cite Benny Morris, who has documented all of this, and she mentions Deir Yassin massacre. But unlike the universal anti-Israel screeds you'll read, she also applies *context* to those events. This was a war of annihilation by the Arabs, one in which, had they won, would have seen all the Jews pushed into the sea (by the words of the Arab leaders of the day). The "ethnic cleansing" occurred on a war the Arabs started, and the intent of the Arabs toward the Jews was far worse than expulsion. Had the Arabs accepted the partition, there would today be no refugees and no conflict. This, also, is fact.What I very much like about Noa Tishby's book is that she does provide all the facts, but she ALSO provides context so you can evaluate the whole thing together. That is very rare for any book on this conflict. Standard hasbara talking points. Noa makes many claims regarding the last century which can easily be disproven. Some of the most ahistorical center around the idea that Israeli officials didn't intend to expel palestinians and that they left presuming there would be an arab attack. That is simply a lie. There were many massacres where Palestinian noncombattants were killed as a strategy to expand the nascent Jewish state.She also points out the poor treatment of palestinian refugees, but they literally aren't lebanese or jordanian. They are palestinian. While the right of Jews to return to Israel is a fair thing for her, she objects to Palestinians returning to the land they were ethnically cleansed from. Many survivors of the Nakba are still alive.Noa is a good writer but her political preferences are essentially human rights violations. Refugees should have the option of repatriation once conflict is over. But frankly the spin isn't that new so I am mostly disappointed that there aren't any innovative takes from her.
