Syed Fathi liked Pedro Martinez's review of From Time Immemorial: The Origins of the Arab-Jewish Conflict over Palestine: "Book written either with a pre-set agenda or without research. Full of false statements, should be candidate to be banned from Florida libraries. Don't waste your time, it's highly propagandistic"
