The very concept of indigeneity and nativeness emerged because of notions that can’t be simply transposed to every single defeated / expelled people in history. The Gauls were not “indigenous” to the Roman “colonisers”
https://twitter.com/travelingclatt/status/1959247655403409875We get that when we say Ancient Egyptians there’s been a lot of changes since the Pharaohs. Hellenisation, Arabization, etc. We are able to recognise these differences and changes over time. It’s the same with the original inhabitants of what is today Israel-Palestine
https://twitter.com/hananyanaftali/status/1958152309394805071Gaza’s current form is the direct result of the Zionist plan to “cleanse” the land of Palestinians. Hundreds of thousands of people were forcefully expelled to Gaza from other parts of Palestine. After Egypt’s intervention, an armistice line separated Gaza from Israel

https://twitter.com/kosherchutzpah/status/1957782051026788356But the extermination camp is unique to The Holocaust not to all genocides. It’s just that popular imagination is so tied up to the image of The Holocaust (and the Holocaust Movie) that we feel anything “less” than The Holocaust can’t be genocide bc it “cheapens” the term

https://twitter.com/owenjonesjourno/status/1954829100687745269Indigenous Peruvians talk about the Shining Path in the context of the Manchay Tiempo (the Time of Fear/Terror) and talk about their fight against them as a fight against “the terrorists”. In Argentina, collective memory has framed the Junta’s atrocities as “state terrorism”

https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/1954974436534390925Yes, he interrupts his guests. Boo hoo, how mean. Are you serious? You’re defending one of the worst atrocities of this century and you’re the victim? Seriously these porcelain dolls would not last a day as Palestinians.
https://twitter.com/jk_rowling/status/1953809022089318785You can argue the “nature” of the sky never changed, that it was a constant regardless of social meaning all you want. When you see a beautiful sunset, you don’t think “this is lovely because it is just a giant ball of gas refracting light through water vapour at an angle”
https://twitter.com/infinite_jaz/status/1954193528218628364If they believe this because they believe Israel is incapable of committing genocide, as opposed to their reading of a definition, their view is unreliable. I explain this in further detail here:
https://twitter.com/petrogustavo/status/1953225299509772422El Protocolo de Amistad y Cooperación de Rio de Janeiro de 1934 que Petro cita es claro al señalar que la línea que traza el Tratado Salomón Lozano solo puede ser “afectada” por “mutuo acuerdo” o “decisión de la Justicia Internacional”. No dice por “cambios morfológicos”
https://twitter.com/dropsitenews/status/1952417794244448746I am in despair for the hostages and their families and for the thousands of Palestinians that will be killed as a result of this new demential course of action. No one -NO ONE- should be used as bargaining chip for geopolitical goals. I know the despair of hoping against hope

https://twitter.com/drelidavid/status/1952367833574244862So really the attacks are not indiscriminate in the sense that they do not distinguish between military targets and civilian populations. On the contrary, they do distinguish between them and then shoot at the civilians.
https://twitter.com/mattwalshblog/status/1952039061645914559The Inca also did have a way to record valuable information- it was just not written through an alphabet. The quipu was a complex system that records information based on texture, colour and the shape of knots. It’s so complex that we have not been able to decipher it to this day
https://twitter.com/elliotmalin/status/1949851728267927695It is a fundamental principle of law that laws that protect rights should be read expansively and laws that restrict rights should be read narrowly. Rules regarding the protection of people from genocide therefore should be read expansively.
https://twitter.com/romanhelmetguy/status/1948812848852779303I was looking for non-Euro-American actors implementing the laws of war in the 19th Century. One of the key arguments I make in my dissertation is that 19th Century laws of war were really, literally, *laws* in plural, with different parts of the world adopting different readings
