Deliberate Deceptions: Facing the Facts About the U.S.-Israeli Relationship
Findley is a former congressman who now serves as an active public-interest spokesman for the Palestinian cause. As in his previous work, They Dare To Speak Out ( LJ 8/85; Lawrence Hill, 1989. rev. ed.), he here outlines a virulent anti-Israeli position. Using provocative themes to set the tone, he delves into three aspects of the Arab-Israeli conflict: "Statehood and Conquest," "Collusion and Conflict," and "Perils to Peace." Basing his argument upon a simplistic notion that all problems can be separated into two clear and unequivocal ideal positions of right and wrong, Findley popularizes a highly complex social and political conflict. A strongly partisan approach relying on straw man arguments; buy accordingly.- Sanford R.
