A vivid and insightful analysis of the complex relationship between Israel and its Palestinian citizens, written by a renowned Israeli historian. For decades, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have lived as Israeli citizens within the borders of the nation formed at the end of the 1948 conflict. Occupying a precarious middle position between the Jewish citizens of Israel and the dispossessed Palestinians of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Israeli Palestinians have developed a highly complex relationship with the land they call home. Yet, in the countless discussions about the Israel-Palestine problem, their experiences are often overlooked and forgotten. In this book, historian Ilan Pappé examines how Israeli Palestinians have fared under Jewish rule and what their lives reveal about Israel's stance towards minorities and Palestinians' attitudes towards the Jewish state. Drawing from significant archival and interview sources, Pappé analyzes the policies of the Israeli state towards its Palestinian citizens, finding discrimination in housing, education, and political rights. With meticulous research and a readable style, The Forgotten Palestinians offers a new and necessary perspective on the Israel-Palestine debate.
