Is this the same New York Times that published Screams without Words - source? The same New York Times that worked so hard to manufacture consent for the Iraq War - source? The NYT is a consistent apologist for imperialism. It seems Cohen is working hard to hasbara the situation.

Also, how the hell are immigrant settler-colonists an indigenous group? It’s absurd on its face and insults out intelligence. Even the “historically indigenous” argument, as irrelevant as it is (by that logic, we’re all indigenous Africans), has been found to be riven with holes.

Not surprising. The Israeli government also bans services like 23AndMe or Ancestry.com from operating in their borders unless a doctor seems it medically necessary. DNA is a store of information, just like a book.
