Genocide in Gaza Israel, Hamas, and the Long War on Palestine

In this book Avi Shlaim places Israel's policy towards the Gaza Strip under an uncompromising lens. He argues that these recurrent attacks - what Israeli generals chillingly call "mowing the lawn" - are the inevitable result of Zionist settler colonialism whose basic objective is the elimination of the native population. In this war, however, Israel has gone beyond land-grabbing and ethnic cleansing to commit the crime of all crimes - genocide.
