If you want an accurate history of Gaza, what's happened to create the circumstances where we find ourselves now, then it will have to come from those who have experienced it first hand and can provide a narrative. There are multiple voices now rising up, including some of the most intense opposition coming from Israelis themselves. Gaza has gone well beyond protecting Israeli security or diminishing Hamas.
The whole middle eastern conflict is well beyond the grasp of most Americans. It's a fight with sides that we can take, and it has a lot of implications based on the phony end times eschatology of the conservative Evangelicals pushing for a Christian nationalist, fascist approach to government, rather than a Constitutional democracy. That's because most of the history, and almost all of the media coverage is from the perspective of the victors of the many wars that have taken place there since 1945.
My historical knowledge and background of Gaza is of my own research, mostly while earning an M.A. at a theological seminary. I've get several more volumes to read from my current stack, so I'm not just "one sourced" here, which will be duly recommended to free thinkers here once I've read them and can offer a review and comment. This needs to be discussed. And doing so is not anti-semitic, it's obedience to the overall human value of world peace, however that can be defined.
