71. How Dr. Ghassan Abu-Sittah has been changed by the Gaza genocide
Dr. Ghassan Abu-Sittah was among the last group of people to enter Gaza through Egypt on the morning of Monday, October 9, immediately before the Rafah crossing was shut down and the territory was sealed off from the world.
He started operating at al-Shifa Hospital, Gaza’s medical epicenter, as soon as he’d arranged safe…

This has changed not just you, but me and the world 🙏 together our energies will continue to hold, to free Palestine 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸🍉🍉
The best articulation of liberal contradiction I've ever heard. Thank you
Dr. Abu-Sittah is extremely well-spoken on this issue and is a powerful voice for the Palestinians and for humanity in general but I think he strayed a little too far from "correctness" towards the end with certain of his comments.
As a Canadian, it was mainly or exclusively his comments about how a society or settler/colonial group "can never step back" from genocide as a form of elimination once that line is crossed that troubled me because I have reasonable familiarity with the Canadian history or event(s) that he alluded to.
Insofar as that Canadian history was referenced to illustrate and support that a group can never step back, I believe it was very misplaced in terms of genocide and a comparison to how Israel is conducting itself. The example he used for Canada (and Australia) related a "physical" act(s) rather than a socio act. Those Canadian events/that specific or subset of Canadian colonial history (the employment of residential schools and the abuses that took place within them), if it is to be referenced as a genocide, were primarily socio practices intended to force assimilation of the native population to the settlers' predominant culture. It most certainly included physical and mental oppression by many that worked there and some murders by the worst of those offenders, but nothing comparable to what is happening in Palestine. I've been ashamed of how the government of Canada has in many/most ways supported Israel (and the US) in what is going on in Palestine, but to reference certain deaths and murders that took place in Canada in the 1970's, where there would have been various underlying motivations by the perpetrators for the subset which were in fact murders (little of which is fully known at this time), as an illustration to support (incorrectly) a genocidal intent and practice of a much larger society that could never step back was very much inappropriate. That of course doesn't speak to Israel's incapacity to do so in the short to mid-term without extreme intervention. I certainly agree with Dr. Abu-Sittah on that point.
The humiliation they put Palestinian people through is coming back at them tenfold and illustrating to the world What true evil looks like
