How the Past Became a Weapon of Genocide in Palestine | Public Humanities | Cambridge Core How the Past Became a Weapon of Genocide in Palestine - Volume 1

I have a new article out today in Public Humanities, where I try to find some words for how historicide is (and has always been) a project of European colonialism - and I try to find some words for the historians who continue to support it. πŸ‡΅πŸ‡ΈβœŠπŸ»

The moral compass of many (white) archaeologists was clearly lost already a while ago (if they even had it). The President of the EAA also signed a support letter for Isr*el in April 2024, after the killing of 34,535 Palestin*ans and injuring 77,704, destroying hospitals/universities, etc.

Given the EAA has gone back on excluding Israeli institutions from the conference - and is also trying to prevent @archagainstaparth.bsky.social from protesting in their sessions - it’s time to walk away until they can find their moral compass. blacktrowelcollective.wordpress.com/2025/09/02/b...

A scholar from Ariel University was recently excluded from WAC as it is recognized that this is a university of illegal occupation.

April 15 SkySat imagery from @planet.com shows Tell Ali Muntar, an archeological site already damaged last year, has been further damaged/turned into an IDF staging area with berms. A nearby cemetery has also been damaged.

This is part of the IDF's expansion of the buffer zone into Shejaiya.
