Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Five Stars - Best read alongside The Iron Wall by Avi Shlaim. Review: A broad historical perspective on the Arab-Israeli conflict. - Year after year, decade after decade, the conflict in the Middle East becomes more and more complex and apparently more and more intractable. Benny Morris offers an extraordinary piece of scholarship which will be of consuming interest to anyone concerned to understand the politics and psychology of the situation: Morris takes a complex subject and delivers a highly readable analysis. He demonstrates that the roots of the present Arab-Israeli wars and social unrest stretch back to the 19th century. Morris analyses the tensions which underlay the creation of Israel, and achieves the seemingly impossible - a balanced narrative of the politics and warfare of the region. Morris is cutting in his remarks: the outbreak of the Six Day War was a mistake - the politicians posed and postured and pushed one another... until the situation was beyond their control. Morris's analysis of the strategies and military successes of the protagonists is compelling. This is an indispensable work for anyone interested in the Middle East - and it is impossible for anyone to dismiss that conflict as too remote or as limited in its importance to the rest of the world. Here is a major flash point for world politics and economics - and an enduring nightmare for people caught up in the horrors which beset their lands. Rich in detail and analysis, written with pace and style, this is a thought provoking work. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 228,399 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 5,140 in World History (Books) 52,088 in Society, Politics & Philosophy | | Customer reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (244) | | Dimensions | 13.13 x 4.09 x 20.17 cm | | Edition | New | | ISBN-10 | 0679744754 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0679744757 | | Item weight | 794 g | | Language | English | | Print length | 800 pages | | Publication date | 28 Aug. 2001 | | Publisher | Random House Inc | ## Images ![Righteous Victims: A History of the Zionist-Arab Conflict, 1881-2001 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51OzomxxDGL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by T***R on 15 January 2016* Best read alongside The Iron Wall by Avi Shlaim. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A broad historical perspective on the Arab-Israeli conflict. *by O***M on 20 December 2000* Year after year, decade after decade, the conflict in the Middle East becomes more and more complex and apparently more and more intractable.

On the first count, this book is not easy. It's very long, it's very detailed, and there are not many huge surprises in the plot, because everyone already knows the end of the story. And it's definitely a book that needs to be read sequentially, from the front cover on; although it's divided in chapters, the material in each of them is so intimately linked with the content of the previous pages that reading piecemeal is going to be very hard. The font is small, and there only a handful of not very detailed maps, which is quite frustrating, especially when reading about military battles. To give a comparison, Schneer's book on the Balfour Declaration felt easier work (although not by much). What keeps the reader awake is the way details, characters and actions mesh into each other, how facts decades old keep re-emerging to shape later actions. Overall, it's a book that requires commitment, but rewards with a veritable panoply of facts and data. Which takes us neatly on the second part of the judgment: how accurate and unbiased are the facts and data presented in the book? Clearly, I have no way of knowing for sure, I cannot check every fact and document quoted. My overall impression though is that the book is as fair, and as unbiased, as the sources used in it permitted. This comes from the fact that, throughout the book, the overall impression is that one of the two sides carries greater responsibility (greater, not total) for the developments that took place in Palestine since the middle of the XIX century, and the author never seems to hide or mollify the facts that drive that impression. In a sense, Morris is presenting facts that put more blame on his own side (that's my impression anyway); he never points his finger of course, but he leaves his material there, and it's material that overall shifts the balance of blame more on one side than the other. I think this is enough to deem the author's effort as honest. Editing issues, lack of maps, and a times overly stodgy style stop me from giving five stars (clearly, I am not giving any star judgment on the actual content). ## Frequently Bought Together - Righteous Victims: A History of the Zionist-Arab Conflict, 1881-2001 - The Hundred Years' War on Palestine - 1948: A History of the First Arab-Israeli War --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/184252623-righteous-victims-a-history-of-the-zionist-arab-conflict-1881](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/184252623-righteous-victims-a-history-of-the-zionist-arab-conflict-1881) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-06-09*
