A review by megthecatlady
The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine by Ilan Pappé

informative slow-paced

3.5

I'm not sure why, but I was expecting this book to be less military heavy. I understand the role of the military, but it felt like the vast majority of this book was a play by play of every military action from Israel. 

That being said, I did learn a lot about the history of Israel and Palestine and I took away a lot from this book. However, it was definitely like a textbook. I think I will look for more succinct summaries that focuses more on the lives of people impacted than a military playbook.
