In an essay by Ilan Pappé—an Israeli historian and director of European Centre for Palestine Studies at the University of Exeter, United Kingdom —we are taken through common myths of the events leading to and following the 1967 war between Israel, Egypt and Syria, also know as the Six Day War.
The essay was originally published in the Cairo Review of Global Affairs. A shortened version was translated by me for Arbejderen with personal permission from Ilan Pappé.
