From economy of occupation to economy of genocide

Zotero is fantastic piece of software to read and annotate books and reports.

I’ve been reading UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese’s ‘From economy of occupation to economy of genocide Report of the Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967’.

It is damning about Israeli settler-colonialism and genocide.

I‘ve been thinking about why the UK government finds it so hard to oppose genocide, and I think it‘s because the UK quite literally has a vested interest in Israel, historically, politically and economically.

And then realised, it‘s the same processes in operation with the nature and climate emergency.
