How does the future look? Here is an excellent discussion of the topic in The Nation, with an editorial and three excellent contributions from Benveniste, Makdisi and Klug. http://www.thenation.com/doc/20070618/editors2 Judt has also written a lot about this and has one of the most important insights into the topic.

Now we are hearing Tom Segev's account of that same war period as he has a new book out- this as we "celebrate" the 40th anniversaary of that war and the beginning of the occupation. Perhaps Tony Judt has read the new book and would weigh in .
