“I decide who is a Jew.”
Karl Lueger

George Orwell
“We have become too civilized to grasp the obvious. For the truth is very simple. To survive you often have to fight, and to fight you have to dirty yourself. War is evil, and it is often the lesser evil. Those who take the sword perish by the sword, and those who don't take the sword perish by smelly diseases.”
George Orwell

Frederick Douglass
“No one idea has given rise to more oppression and persecution toward colored people of this country than that which makes Africa, not America, their home.”
Frederick Douglass

Charles Krauthammer
“Underlying Israeli-Palestinian negotiations is the cliche that one can only make peace with one's enemy. It is equally true, however, that one can only make peace with an enemy who truly wants peace. If the enemy is intent on remaining an enemy, if his objective is not peace but victory, if he believes your very existence is a stain on his honor and his God, peace is not possible. With such an enemy negotiations are futile. And concessions are mere appeasement, an invitation to disaster.

. . . .

The claim that there is no alternative to the peace process is a message of fanatical despair. There is an alternative: no peace process. No negotiations. And the separation of Israeli and Palestinian populations (no more Gaza workers in Israel, for example) to reduce the opportunity for terror. Divorce, suspension and vigilance until the Palestinians decide whether they want victory or peace. The double game -- talk and murder -- cannot continue.”
Charles Krauthammer

Rudyard Kipling
“And that after this is accomplished, and the brave new world begins
When all men are paid for existing and no man must pay for his sins,
As surely as Water will wet us, as surely as Fire will burn,
The Gods of the Copybook Headings with terror and slaughter return!”
Rudyard Kipling, The Gods of the Copybook Headings
