  • @Salamwamat I know Jamal Kanj's son, and the stories he's told me and the things he's shown me are 100% true. Just because you want to lie to yourself and pretend it's all "Lies", doesn't mean it is.

  • Kanj talking garbadge of lies.

  • You're right. The tragedy is that no one knows the story, especially in the US where Israel has succeeded in creating the general US vision that Israel is heroic and advanced and Palestinians are basically terrorists who deserve what they have (and don't have). I hope your book will help spread the truth, but I have to say I'm not optimistic. Americans simply don't want to know.

  • I read this book recently, it was an eye opener. It is serious, entertaining and educational book. It is personal narrative within historical context. It was the part of history I avoided reading all my life. I am a new convert!
