That's a tough one...  I read Orly Castel-Bloom's Human Parts, which
doesn't have to do with the current situation exactly but does talk
about the tensions and what comes with it.  But that's another
Israeli-written book.  I like it because it offers an image of what
day-to-day people are dealing with over there as opposed to the
political figures - it doesn't seem to be skewed towards one side or
another, just "here it is, this is what it's like to live here" sort
of deal.

I think for what you're looking for you'd be relegated to more along
the lines of Palestinian media (I can't help you out with a link as I
don't know of any sources myself).  Good luck.
