So far, a fair account of how the violence from which Israel was born affected Jews, Arabs, Israelis and Diaspora Jews. An eye-opener which strikes me as much more accurate than the creation myths propagated by the winners and the displaced. Most poignant is the plight of the Yemeni Jews, who upon returning to Israel were forced to deny their Arabic heritage, yet were treated as alien by the mainstream returnees.
