| This Beginner's Guide to Hamas was first published in 2006 and updated in 2010 and 2025, and is structured as a Q&A. With so much unhinged propaganda out there — numerous Western politicians claim Hamas is worse than the SS, for example — it's useful ...more | |

“I give myself credit for having seen clearly in a number of important situations. In itself, this is not so difficult to achieve, and yet it is rather unusual. To my mind, it is less a question of an exalted or shrewd intelligence, than of good sense, goodwill, and a certain sort of courage to enable one to rise above both the pressures of one's environment and the natural inclination to close one's eyes to facts, a temptation that arises from our immediate interests and from the fear which problems inspire in us. A French essayist has said: 'What is terrible when you seek the truth, is that you find it.' You find it, and then you are no longer free to follow the biases of your personal circle, or to accept fashionable clichés.”
