Diane Butta Israels Veneer 9x16 R V1
Показать описание
“Israel always tries to give this veneer, this look, as though it's behaving legally. ”
Diana Buttu is a Palestinian-Canadian lawyer and former legal adviser to the PLO’s negotiations team. She often speaks on how legal frameworks are used to justify and obscure imbalances of power.
In this clip from Frank Barat’s YouTube channel, Buttu explains how the appearance of legality shapes public perception. She highlights how the treatment of Palestinians is framed as lawful simply because it occurs within a formal system—even when basic legal standards are absent. This illusion, she contends, creates a double standard in how different groups are portrayed and understood.
