Suomen hallitus ja ulkopoliittinen johto, ja siten koko valtiollinen Suomi, kannattaa palestiinalaisten kansanmurhaa.

Pohtikaapa sitä tosiasiaa hetki hiljaa.

“And they’ll say we’re disturbing the peace, but there is no peace. What really bothers them is that we’re disturbing the war.” - Howard Zinn
It's utterly mad.
These people are the opposite of terrorists.
THEY WANT PEACE.
The police know they're not terrorists.
The government knows they're not terrorists.
Yet, on the Home Secretary's orders, they're being arrested under the Terrorism Act.

This is the final frontier of genocide. 

Israeli air strikes killed over 250 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip in the past 48 hours, including over 100 Palestinians last night. There are reports of entire families trapped or missing under the rubble.

We are about to witness the complete ethnic cleansing of Gaza. Another genocide. Future historians will ask how it is possible that we all knew about it, yet did nothing. But we already know the answer: we have allowed that a people was completely dehumanized. Again.

Trump has effectively given Netanyahu a green light to do as he sees fit, Israeli officials say.

Heartbreaking:
Today afternoon in Rafah, the Israeli forces opened fire at a child and killed him. He apparently was riding his donkey heading back “home.”
When a man tried to drag him away, he was shot at.
Why why why why !!!!!??????!????
Trump: enjoy your inauguration, mr. Peacemaker.

My take on all the Trump genuflection:

Once you have convinced yourself you can stay silent on a genocide unfolding live on your phone, you can stay silent/make peace with pretty much anything.

Israel has blown a massive hole in our moral universe and now pretty anything can drive through it.
For @theguardian.com I wrote about how Gaza has split the academic field of genocide studies.

As one scholar put it, “Where can the field stand if scholars from within and around it are unwilling to call the behaviour out?”

My latest.

Defining genocide: how a rift over Gaza sparked a crisis among scholars
New reports by human rights groups use the term to describe Israel’s offensive. The debate has fueled a brutal division among those who study mass violence
