This is a true Australian story of innocence, ignorance, and the perils of 'mob thinking'.

Essential reading for students of history and the law, young and old." The book forms an excellent cross-curricular resource, ideal for class discussion and activity.

The story of Azaria is one that was written after much thought and consideration. Her story is not so singular in that there are many young women around the world that experience the same things Azaria endured. The uniqueness comes in the time, place, and context that these events may have occurred and continue to occur. The story of Azaria is one that opens the eyes to the strength and endurance of true love and the depth of forgiveness that love can reach to and at the same time. It depicts the strength, endurance, and resilience of the human spirit. This is a story that I knew had to be told. Many have lived it, but the time had come for someone to put pen to paper and release it. This is to release the pain and feelings of hurt, betrayal, and disappointment and to also bring to light the joy that comes from withstanding any storm that may approach in life. Azaria’s story is told in a series of books, with Azaria being the first of that series that will follow the journey that Azaria and her family travels. In this book, there is an opportunity for the reader to identify with each character. This is a story about the strengths and flaws of human character. There is no villain; it is just a story of young love gone wrong, which could happen to anyone. Any man or woman could make the same human errors that have been made by the characters in this story. It is not for anyone to judge but to simply read and introspect. Any of these characters could be you, or even me. Being human is a challenge. The obstacles life presents us with tests us on a daily basis, and our character strengths and weaknesses are often tested. We may be hurt or hurt others. We may be disappointed or let down or be the one who disappoints and lets someone else down. At the end of it all, we are still human. We still breathe the same air, cry the same tears, and bleed the same blood. Ours is to live and love in the best way we can and the best way we know how, and this is the story of Azaria. —Anne Musoke

Explores the use of armed force in occupied territory under different international law branches.

Drawing on unprecedented access to the video archives of B'Tselem, an Israeli NGO that distributes cameras to Palestinians living in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip, Liat Berdugo lays out an argument for a visual studies approach to videographic evidence in Israel/Palestine. Using video stills as core material, it discusses the politics of videographic evidence in Israel/Palestine by demonstrating that the conflict is one that has produced an inequality of visual rights. The book highlights visual surveillance and counter surveillance at the citizen level, how Palestinians originally filmed to “shoot back” at Israelis, who were armed with shooting power via weapons as the occupying force. It also traces how Israeli private citizens began filming back at Palestinians with their own cameras, including personal cell phone cameras, thus creating a simultaneous, echoing counter surveillance. Complicating the notion that visual evidence alone can secure justice, the Weaponized Camera in The Middle East asks how what is seen, but also who is seeing, affects how conflicts are visually recorded. Drawing on over 5,000 hours of footage, only a fraction of which is easily accessible to the public domain, this book offers a unique perspective on the strategies and battlegrounds of the Israel/Palestine conflict.
