How I Learned to Speak Israel by Alex McDonald
Description
Subtitle: An American's Guide to a Foreign Policy Language. It shines a light on what we have not been told. It uncovers: the unpublicized history kept from most Americans that clarifies today's situation, real life situations on the ground that provide context for the vocabulary, and an analysis of the messaging we hear and how it can be a house of cards that collapses under scrutiny.

A Very Short History of the Israel-Palestine Conflict - Ilan Pappe
The devastation of 7 October 2023 and the horrors that followed astounded the world. But the Israel–Palestine conflict didn’t start on 7 October. It didn’t start in 1967 either, when Israel occupied the West Bank, or in 1948 when the state of Israel was declared. It started in 1882, when the first Zionist settlers arrived in what was then Ottoman Palestine. Ilan Pappe untangles the history of two peoples, now sharing one land. Going back to the founding fathers of Zionism, Pappe expertly takes us through the twists and turns of international policy towards Israel–Palestine, Palestinian resistance to occupation, and the changes taking place in Israel itself.
