I found this to be a very balanced and factual presentation of the Nation of Israel. I discovered information that I have not seen in the media or other writings that helped me to better understand the conflict in the Middle East. I especially gained a clearer picture of the BDS movement and how it actually harms the cause of the Palestinians. An easy to understand read.
