Bij waarschuwingen voor een hybride oorlog met Rusland gaat het soms over een ‘vijfde colonne’. De uitdrukking stamt uit de Spaanse Burgeroorlog en is de afgelopen eeuw vooral gebruikt om vergaande maatregelen te nemen tegen minderheden, zegt @samuelkruizinga.bsky.social

Reposting this by the brilliant Frédéric Mégret from the other website. As a historian working on colonial warfare and mass violence, I have always had a rather cynical view of the legal framing of war and 'war crimes' etc. and it is tragic to see legal scholars begin the question this as well...
