Forensic Architecture by Eyal Weizman is a great read if you’re interested in the legalities and history of documenting acts of genocide. The second part, focuses specifically on Palestine, and the rigorous documentation needed to prove acts of violence committed against civilians.
I’m only halfway through, but it is incredibly informative!! The book really highlights the nuances that Palestinians and human rights groups have to face in the pursuit of legal justice, with modern case studies.
The author also discuss the significance of using his privileges as an israeli citizen to work against and oppose the state regime when international forces are unable to; and to my knowledge, still works with human rights groups in support of the Palestinian cause.
