Western settler-colonialism is not “a 1,000 year conflict.” It’s a modern imperialist project.

That is why the yanks are so bent on helping israel. If they admit gaza is a ghetto they would have to admit putting their natives into reserves wasn't that nice either.
Fuck you, mods for censoring me. ^You are an evil person and you should consider euthanasia.^
So I was saying. That is why the yanks are so bent on supporting israel. If they admit gaza is a ghetto, they'd have to admit putting their indians in reserves wasn't that nice either.
Journalist Roger Cohen quoted multiple experts in a New York Times article. Both Cohen and Yuval Shany, a humanitarian law scholar, describe the conflict as being between two indigenous groups, and Cohen argues that calling Israel's establishment a colonial enterprise is "a significant category error." Sociologist Jeffrey C. Alexander refers to "colonialism" as "the go-to term for total pollution", and he writes that the association of Israel with colonialism "is seen as effective" -source
Is this the same New York Times that published Screams without Words - source? The same New York Times that worked so hard to manufacture consent for the Iraq War - source? The NYT is a consistent apologist for imperialism. It seems Cohen is working hard to hasbara the situation.
Also, how the hell are immigrant settler-colonists an indigenous group? It’s absurd on its face and insults out intelligence. Even the “historically indigenous” argument, as irrelevant as it is (by that logic, we’re all indigenous Africans), has been found to be riven with holes.
It's because the italians deported them in 56BC. That is also the reason why we should establish a roma settlement in kashmir.
People support israel because they down they want to send the brown people back to where they come from.
Not surprising. The Israeli government also bans services like 23AndMe or Ancestry.com from operating in their borders unless a doctor seems it medically necessary. DNA is a store of information, just like a book.
