Good journalistic styled book with a lot of personal stories detailing Israel’s systemic discrimination against Palestinians- highly recommend the read especially if you’re pro Israel

5.0

This collection of Palestinian accounts of the horror forced upon them by the occupying settler colony of Israel is a must read for understanding the occupation of Palestine. It was an incredibly difficult read due to the pain you feel when you put yourself in the Palestinians’ position. I learned so much such as different types of torture used, the appropriation of Palestinian goods to be sold as Israeli goods in Europe, the extra taxes Palestinians have to pay that Israelis do not, etc.

dark reflective sad fast-paced

Important if you want a quick show and tell of what's happening in Palestine. 
This is from the 90's but unfortunately not a lot has changed, it's even worse now.
