Censorship history

Reported by B'Tselem as prohibited by the IDF in the West Bank. The prohibition of a memoir by Israel's own Defence Minister — documenting peace negotiations — illustrates the broad and at times inconsistent scope of IDF censorship in the occupied territories during the first Intifada period.
