This is the opinion page of NYT. I wonder how far this perspective wanders from reality. If there's anything I've learned from studying the Arab-Israeli conflict its that most individual perspectives provide a universally bad account for causes, effects, and relations in a given situation, while simultaneously offering a rich amount of insight into human bias, error, emotion, and self deception.

That is, however, not to say that that is what this account is.

On that note, does anyone have a suggestion for the most non-biased sources i.e. books for understanding the conflict? I realize it's probably going to be very hard right now since distance in terms of time usually leads to more accurate and less biased analyses of a historical event.
