  1. CW: Palestine, colonialism

    I just saw this video of Aamer Rahman (who I didn't know about before).

    youtube.com/watch?v=66y-fCwflg

    There is part where he says something that specially resonated with me.

    He says (2:46):
    "All colonized people see themselves in Palestine. They see some aspect of what was done to them in Palestine.
    And all colonizers see themselves in Israel."

    To me the last sentence there, give my part of an answer to a question that often plague my mind when reading about Palestine:

    why do some many people support Israel?

    Even though I don't live in a settler-colonial country (but an imperialist country), the culture that I am a part of, is influence by white supremacist ideas, and many Danes do identify more with whites in USA, than with any BIPOC. They identify themselves with the colonizers and by extension with Israel. The identity politics is always there.
