“Only within a world shut off from the view of the other side can each side mourn its dead and celebrate its heroes.”
Hillel Cohen, Year Zero of the Arab Israeli Conflict 1929

“We state it with a pure heart and full confidence that no Jew has ever thought and is not thinking now in any way whatsoever of impinging on Muslim rights and their holy places.”
Hillel Cohen, Year Zero of the Arab-Israeli Conflict 1929

“We make ourselves out to be innocent victims of attack. It’s true that in August the attackers were Arabs. Since they have no army, they cannot observe the rules of the game. They availed themselves of all the barbaric means typical of an anticolonialist rebellion. But we need to look at the deepest sources of the uprising. We have spent twelve years in Palestine without having even once asked the Arabs’ consent, without conducting any sort of discussion with the people living in this land. We have trusted solely to British power. We have set ourselves goals that must inevitably lead to conflict. (Lavsky 1990, 204)”
Hillel Cohen, Year Zero of the Arab-Israeli Conflict 1929
