Against our better judgment : the hidden history of how the U.S. was used to create Israel

Weir, Alison, 1951-2014
Books, Manuscripts
Soon after WWII US statesman Dean Acheson warned that creating Israel on land already inhabited by Palestinians would imperil both American and all Western interests in the region. Despite warnings such as this one, President Truman supported establishing a Jewish state on land primarily inhabited by Muslims and Christians. The author brings together meticulously sourced evidence to illuminate a reality that differs starkly from the prevailing narrative and provides a clear view of the history that is key to understanding on of the most critically important political issues of our day.
