“After so many years of interrogations, I had learned that praying and reciting the Qur'an completely shut off all my senses so that I didn't hear, I didn't see, I didn't feel anymore. I just existed in the moment but outside the moment. Interrogators could talk for hours. They could do all kinds of horrible humiliating things to me and they did. But it didn't matter anymore.”
Mansoor Adayfi, Don't Forget Us Here: Lost and Found at Guantanamo

“In 1947 is de Koude Oorlog in volle gang en krijgt die veel aandacht van de internationale publieke opinie. Op de vraag of hij niet vreest dat het communistische gedachtegoed aan populariteit wint ten gevolge van de steun aan de onafhankelijkheidsaspiraties van de Arabieren, antwoordt Abdelkrim:

Wij zijn grotendeels moslims, wat betekent dat we in de Koran een filosofie en religie vinden die ons volledig bevredigt. We hebben dus geen behoefte aan een verdachte doctrine die vanuit het buitenland komt en in strijd is met onze mentaliteit.”
Yassin Akouh, Koloniale vloek: De relaties tussen de Marokkaanse staat en de Rif

“Better a dog of the Ait Atta, than Sultan under the French.’’

— Saying of the Middle Atlas”
Carleton S. Coon, The Riffian

“Het Marokkaanse volk zal op een dag opstaan – waarschijnlijk binnenkort. Ze zullen de aanwezigheid van Franse en Spaanse troepen op Marokkaanse bodem niet tolereren.

— Emir Abdelkrim al-Khattabi (1957)”
Yassin Akouh, Koloniale vloek: De relaties tussen de Marokkaanse staat en de Rif

“Islam is a practical religion that's woven into the fabric of our daily life. General Miller, this head of interrogations, the interrogators and psychologists all failed to understand the depth and strength of our faith. Yes, we were physically weak, we were beaten, and they would beat us more, but our strength was in our hearts, and our hearts were driven by our faith and trust in Allah. We couldn't be bought with promises of riches.”
Mansoor Adayfi, Don't Forget Us Here: Lost and Found at Guantanamo
