Automatic upvote for John Oliver.

Automatic upvote aside, the video is absolutely worth watching.

As bad as you may think Israel is, it gets worse. I usually can stomach reading anything, but the following two books by Ilan Pappe were too much for me and I couldn't finish them.

I am glad the false narrative on Israel is finally being challenged. For years Palestinian, Arab, Muslim and anti-Zionist voices were ignored and marginalized.
