Won't be a bestseller in the Arab world
Reader comment on item: [Michael Oren's] "Six Days of War"
in response to reader comment: Is this book available in Egypt?
Submitted by Salvador Vargas-Rivera (United States), Jun 5, 2002 at 19:22
A good chronicle of such a momentous event as the astounding and well deserved defeat and humiliation of the Arabs, who have never been right on anything in their entire ... history. It is sure to be a bestseller in any civilized, enlightened and educated society.
That means that it is unlikely to displace Hitler's "Mein Kampf" as the Number 1 Bestseller in the Arab world.
