I am looking for information on the modern day formation of Israel. Can anyone guide me to some resources for this?

10 Minute video on the Israel/Palestine conflict since about 1900… Just watched it a couple days ago so I haven’t corroborated it with any other sources. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=wb6IiSUxpgw

And a book that was recommend with it (on lewrockwell.com) is A Peace to End All Peace, 20th Anniversary Edition: The Fall of the Ottoman Empire and the Creation of the Modern Middle East by David Fromkin http://www.amazon.com/Peace-End-20th-Anniversary-Edition/dp/0805088091/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348360870&sr=8-1&keywords=a+peace+to+end+all+peace/lewrockwell

This is a highly contentious topic, as you know. A book (and quite a big one at that) friendly to Israel is Howard Morley Sachar’s A History of Israel: From the Rise of Zionism to Our Time. A more critical study is John Quigley’s book The Case for Palestine.

Also very useful, though you’ll have to get it through bookfinder.com, is Donald Neff’s Fallen Pillars: U.S. Policy Towards Palestine and Israel Since 1945.
