Resources for the Gaza “Disengagement”
With the mainstream media maintaining a near constant focus on the Israeli settler narrative, it has become increasingly difficult to find reliable and complete information on the Gaza “Disengagement” and it’s aftermath. Partners for Peace has developed this resources list to help Americans find important information on the “Disengagement” and it’s consequences.
The resources below are designed to give the reader insight into the complex events unfolding in Gaza and elsewhere in Palestine and Israel. A variety of views are expressed. They do not necessarily reflect the views of Partners for Peace.
