DEHUMANIZSTION OF ISRSELI CIVILIANS: HOW TO, ACADAMICALLY

The pair: Neve Gordon & Nicola Perugini

Nicola Perugini's oveview writing 2008-2020:

In Dec.31.2008, instead of simply blaming Hamas for targeting civilians in Sderot, he blamed rather Israel, that it could supposedly stop the violence, if it didn't go after terror masterminds...

In November 26, 2012 he basically dismissed the seriousness of the trauma of Sderot civilians from the barrage of attacks by Gaza (terror) government Hamas. He titled his piece "Wesponizing Trauma." But couldn't provide a single refutation of the hard facts including on PTSD. But , the underline, he seemed awfully pained that Israelis can be looked as victims.

His theme during the years is basically along the lines of a "colonial" force and "occupation," blah blah, which by he uses to dismiss Israeli civilian lives.

There is that bigoted undertone , albeit indirectly, one comes out with the impression to see Israelis which Hamas targets, in their houses, as "powerful occupiers". One might even get the blurred confusion that every Israeli child is some kind of a "tank".

PAIR OF EXTREMISM:

In 2015, together with that other fringe Neve Gordon denounced even anti-Israel biased HRW for its criticism of Hamas' use of human shields.

Realizing the government of Gaza's bestislity use of it's people hurt their image, (I said image, you get the point), the pair has worked for years to turn the tables and use the entire human shields issue against Israel and (so often subtle) indirect covering for Hamas.

Yet, naturalky, will never elaborate on the hypothesis if Israel would not care o much about Arab civilian lives (unlike their leadership). What would have happened to Gaza...

Well, well, what do you know, they got finally a "book." Titled "Human Shields." No less.

They used, over the years, to archive selectively what and how they wanted to be included in archives. And worked for years how to counter the facts with silly essays.

By now, in its current evolved mutation, it looks like an "academic" work. It seeks to claim to be a book about human shields as a whole, supposedly, to fool the reader its not about anti-Israell propaganda. Of course more general info was added later on, to make it appear "authentic" research.

If this pair would really care about humab shields, we would hear them screaming against Hamas guys. Not mere not protesting against those that do.

NICOLA PERUGINI - REVEALING VIA TWEETS

To get a taste of how far radical this activist "author" is:

In Feb.13.2020 Tweeted:

'Dear @eDreams, @opodo, @AirbnbHelp, @bookingcom, the United Nations says that you are providing services which are crucial to the perpetration of human rights violations and war crimes (illegal settlements in occupied territories).' Can you please explain?' https://t.co/RRhtJF5zmV

A settlement "crime against humanity". So said this "academic" Al-Jazeera reporter.

He tweeted in May-15-2020:

'No return of the Palestinian refugees to their homeland, no peace. #Nakba72' https://t.co/1ahUBXdtOu

That's right. An "academic" militant.

To see how erroneously hot headed this guy is, see an example of how he portrayed D. Pipes May 7 2020 Nytimes piece: "Annexing the West Bank Would Hurt Israel", he deemed a line (from teason number sixth) as "liberal racial hatred," while the clear intention was not against a group of people but about the facts on the ground, of populations, changes.

'Are you looking for a definition of liberal racial hatred? Read Daniel Pipes against Israel's annexation of the Palestinian West Bank in the @nytopinion' https://t.co/OsICxkfd

NEVE GORDON:

* Already defined as an extremist in 2001 Middle East [Quarterly, 2001: https://www.meforum.org/87/israels-academic-extremists];

* whose articles appeared on neo Nazi sites [https://www.jpost.com/opinion/op-ed-contributors/neve-gordon-cant-take-criticism];

* who at the height of Arafat's intifada butchery pictured himself with him and saying [lying to the world] he is not sure he is responsible for the terror attacks. [Ynet, 2002: https://m.ynet.co.il/articles/1612028];

* who on 2007 persecuted an Israeli student who challenged his anti-Jewish incitement via false statement:

... offended by his phraseology and said Gordon was bordering on anti-Semitism by deeming these roads "Jewish roads." The student described for the class the complete freedom of movement of Israeli Arabs (Arabs with Israeli citizenship) on Israeli roads inside Israel and inside the West Bank. Therefore by calling the roads "Jewish" and not Israeli Gordon was being anti-Semitic...'

The student was then targeted by this "professor" and humiliated. [https://israelbehindthenews.com/2009/08/25/studying-with-prof-neve-gordon-at-the-university-of-michigan/];

* and who in 2009 openly called for boycotting Israel [https://www.jpost.com/opinion/columnists/borderline-view-a-self-imposed-boycott].
