Excellent generational record and also a quicker look at the history of Palestine than say Khalidi's The Hundred Years War. USians would do well do read this one to combat the mostly pro-Israel position that dominates the government, media, and everything else. It emphasizes the essential point missing from the conversation - no peace agreement has ever addressed right of return, end to occupation, settlement removal, etc and instead focuses solely on Israeli security and hands Palestinians a list of demands it must comply with - OR ELSE. Other myths are also addressed, but that one was well- stated and much needed now. 

You'll also get a much better look at what Hamas is and isn't, what the elections meant, and how it resulted in the complete imprisonment of thre population. 

I hope one can see how these genocide efforts happen every few years. It isn't a cycle of violence or two sides, but a colonial power trying to displace the indigenous population.
