“An act of terrorism
is not an ideology,
nor religion.
It is the lack of hope,
of opportunity
and of love.
When there is no recourse,
no other way
there is only insurrection.
Understanding, compassion
and respect for all life
is what will save us all.”
Mahima Martel, The Insurrectionist

Zbigniew Brzeziński
“A great deal of world politics is a fundamental struggle, but it is also a struggle that has to be waged intelligently.”
Zbigniew Brzezinski
