Please read and share. ❗️Genocide is the intention to destroy a group as such❗️Using a 'triple lens approach' allows to easily understand it. All is needed is looking at: ➡️the totality of conduct (which may include either crimes per se - killing, torture, forced displacement, etc - or acts conducive to crimes), ➡️against the totality of the group (e.g. Israel treats any Palestinian, old or young, as a security threat, arrestable or even killable, which facilitates all manners of unlawful conduct and justification thereof); ➡️in the totality of the land (the entire occupied Palestinian territory, namely what Israel claims sovereignty on and where Palestinians 'must' be uprooted/eliminated). Far from being 'a novel approach', what I propose is common sense, based on int'l law and jurisprudence. My last report, Genocide as Colonial Erasure, explains the long-standing colonial logic of the unfolding genocide, and I am glad @Law4Palestine summarised it. 👇 [Full report in all UN languages: un.org/unispal/document/geno…]

To all preparing for Christmas: as genocide grips Palestine (Jesus' birthplace, after all) consider turning your gifts into donations for those in need. The environment will thank you too.
