The question the West cannot answer honestly is this: At what point does a settler colonial project become legitimate? One hundred years? Two hundred? When the people displaced are sufficiently dead, assimilated, or defeated that their prior claim can be treated as historical rather than present? America solved this question by making it unaskable within its own borders. The dispossession of Indigenous peoples is curriculum. A chapter. Something that happened, past tense, before the "real story" began. Palestine is the question returning in real time, with cameras. And the cameras are the problem. Because the question was supposed to be settled.
