History vs. Memory vs. Falsehood

Ok, so Yosef Hayim Yerushalmi wrote a book about Jewish "memory," (Zakhor) which argues that Jews recorded and related to history in a way that was meaningful to them.

Let's get real. What this really means is that Jews recorded a fake history. What they wrote down wasn't "memory," their history may have reflected a kernel of reality, but it simply wasn't true! Just say it, sheesh!
