🚨 ISRAEL BOMBS ANOTHER UNESCO SITE
May 27, 2026 at 6:22 PM
Israel destroyed over 100+ archaeological and cultural sites in Gaza.... and yet organizations here like ASOR remain silent. They sure had a lot to say about site destruction in Iraq and Syria.
Israel has obliterated the mausoleum of Simon Peter, the Apostle of Christ, in Shama, southern Lebanon.

A sacred site that has stood for over 2,000 years, now lies in ruins.

This is not “self-defense”.

This is a war crime and a crime against history.

And what will ASOR say? Nothing.

ASOR like 16+ years ago in Toronto shared the lobby with a Pirates and Wenches convention, 10/10 no notes
I am pleased to report that, today at least, #aas247 attendees appear to be sharing the convention center and Sheraton lobby bar with a furry convention.

Where is @asor-research.bsky.social's statement on 🇮🇱's bombing of Tyre?

Why the American School of Overseas Research might be legally liable for complicity w genocide as per Francesca Albanese's new report
Despite 2 years of genocide, ASOR continues to fund work in Israel. Take this seemingly innocent post 1/ 🧵

Still no words from ASOR on the murder of Palestinian partners + students whose project was due to be featured in their conf.

No word either on why another talk on Gaza took place in an "Archaeology of Israel" session.

Is ASOR complicit in the epistemicide of Palestinian stories?
Did you know that the only ASOR Conf talk on Gaza (see my previous post re the canceled one) was in an "archaeology of Isr@el" session?

I'm told no word was uttered about the genocide of Palestinians, but concerns for the LOSS OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES during a future rebuilding of Gaza were voiced.
