Brad DeLong’s murmurings on Richard Ben Cramer’s book, How Israel Lost, makes it sound like just the book I need to read to better understand the underpinnings of the divestment debate that Ranjit pointed me out to. I can just add it to the queue of books I suppose…
wow, it’s really interesting that the reader reviews on amazon are so totally polarized. they are either “4 stars — cramer is totally insightful” or “1 star — cramer is so wrong”
i guess i’ll have to read it now, but it appears to be something of an opinion piece. nothing wrong with that, but i think i’d like to read something purely factual first.
