re: #203 Ghost of Tom Joad

Anyone trying to sum up how Hamas came into power or the problems in Palestine in a single post is going to fail, and fail miserably. It’s not something that can be reduced to a few simple slogans or some cheap pop psychology. It’s a fraught geopolitical mess.

This book is good, reasonably neutral, it doesn’t give quite enough background on Israel during the time period but for the pure Fatah vs. Hamas struggle, it’s a very good one.
