That which you refuse to see

Professor William Schabas, the former president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars, says: "When you see measures preventing births, trying to deny the identity of the people, hoping to see that they really are eventually, that they no longer exist; denying their history, denying the legitimacy of their right to live where they live, these are all warning signs that mean it's not frivolous to envisage the use of the term genocide."

This quote comes from a report about persecution of Rohingya Muslims in Myanmar @


It is also an accurate description of Israel's treatment of Palestinians and America's treatment of its indigenous population (the Indians).

If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck. It is not "fighting terrorism", it is genocide.
