Finkelstein's Gaza: An Inquest Into Its Martyrdom is incredible, though iirc it only covers the '08, '12, '14 onslaughts.

Chomsky's Fateful Triangle is the best book I know of on the subject.
- Bonanno, A. (2003). ‘Palestine, Mon Amour’.
- Chomsky, N. (1999). ‘The Fateful Triangle’.
- Chomsky, N., Pappe, I. (2010). ‘Gaza in Crisis: Reflections on Israel’s War Against the Palestinians’.
- Fanon, F. (1961). ‘The Wretched of the Earth’.
- Finkelstein, N. (2018). ‘Gaza - An Inquest Into Its Martyrdom’.
- Pappe, I. (2006). ‘The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine’.
Good 101 intro is 10 Myths About Israel. It's not as good towards the end because the author is an anti-Zionist Israeli instead of a Palestinian, but everything else is a good intro to the topic. The Empire Files also has several videos about Palestine.
Khalidi's The Hundred Years' War on Palestine
Palestine: A Socialist Introduction ebook is free right now from Haymarket Books. I haven't started it yet, but a friend I trust recommended it.
Isn’t that the sus book?
I haven't read it but the criticism i heard was "The book opens with a Kanafani quote but then denigrating the org he belonged too"
Yeah I heard some weird stuff about it but maybe its like 99% good? Like you just ignore a section/use critical thinking skills and its overall a good resource on Palestine, idk
