Resources for Teachers

Teachers who feel they need an in-depth understanding of the conflict between Israel and Palestine, and America's role in it, can read Power, Faith, and Fantasy and Six Days of War: June 1967 and the Making of the Modern Middle East, by Michael Oren.  While both books are long (over 600 and 300 pages respectively), they paint a detailed picture of the history of this section of the Middle East.  Some critics say that Oren presents an unbalanced story, while others make concessions since the Arab archives have yet to be opened to the public.

(I will update this page as I come across more resources.)
