  Examines the strange birth of the settler movement in the ten years following the Six-Day War and finds that it was as much the child of Labour Party socialism as of religious extremism. This title also shows how three American presidents turned a blind eye to what was happening in the territories, and reveals their strategic reasons for doing so.
