This is one of the first books to challenge head on the Israeli narrative of that war. Perach debunks convincingly and poignantly the foundational mythologies of the 1967 war. The challenge offered here is an essential reading for anyone who wishes to confront successfully years of misinformation and distortion." Ilan Pappé, Professor at the University of Exeter and author of The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine "John Perach skilfully skewers as myths the best-known claims promoted by Israels supporters surrounding the 1967 war. He draws on scholarly studies to help us separate the facts from obfuscating fiction." Jonathan Cook, author of Disappearing Palestine "Perach manages to condense the facts and a web of conflicting opinions into a short and readable book that refutes the claims made by Israel. Israels continued occupation of the West Bank, East Jerusalem, Gaza and the Golan Heights is justified as a product of a defensive war. Perach has done a service by destroying the myths upon which this claim is premised." John Dugard, Professor of International Law and former UN Special rapporteur on human rights in Palestine "This book adds to a growing body of well-documented facts that challenges the Zionist myths. These myths were used to promote racism and ethnic cleansing. The light shed is important not just for the sake of the truth but for bringing justice and a durable peace to the Middle East."
