Zealots for Zion: Inside Israel's West Bank Settlement Movement

I admit that I have been one of those Americans who find the whole Israeli-Palestinian thing just too boring and I didn't want to know. I mean, the Jews I know are smart and funny and Israel has lots of Nobel Prize winners so why shouldn't they be able to do what they want in the land that God gave them...except I never really believed that last part. Friedman interviewed settlers and much of the book is in their own words. If you want to know the history of the settlement movement and what the settlers themselves think about what they are doing and if you don't mind reading a really well-written book, this book is for you.

American's must not take heed to calls for an uneven handed solution to the Palestinian and Israeli conflict. This book gives an unbiased, real, scary, and detailed overview of settler intentions in 'sharing and co-inciding together' with their arab counterparts. As this conflict between the two becomes a political tool for 'molding opinion', this insider takes the courage and strength to share a story of a 'fundamental'cause that will effect every nation in the planet and bring a majority of societies to the brink of war. A MUST READ FOR EVERY FREEDOM LOVING AMERICAN
