Rezensionen

"With talent and insight, Jonathan Spyer humanizes the impact of Israel's having to fight a new enemy, not states but Islamist terror organizations, Hizbullah and Hamas in particular. Reading his book is poignantly and vicariously to live through the past decade of Israel's turmoil, with its many attendant tragedies and its few triumphs." -- Daniel Pipes, Director, Middle East Forum
