“Every subsequent generation that has turned to the Roman Republic for inspiration has revealed something of their own character in the lessons they have sought to learn”

“It's not that Israel doesn't have the space or money but that it simply doesn't want to absorb Palestinians. The racist Zionist demographic obsession with a Jewish majority is the main hurdle for reconciliation in historical Palestine. As long as Israel holds to this ideology, building a just society of both Palestinians and Jews is impossible. The precondition for peace is jettisoning this ideology.
And if this ideology is jettisoned, then there is no obstacle to implementing the right of return, and so it becomes perfectly feasible.”
― Israel on the Brink: And the Eight Revolutions that Could Lead to Decolonization and Coexistence

“There’s a tradition associated with the prophet,” he says.
“When you’ve seen an injustice occur you should try to change it with your hands. If you can’t change it with your hands then you should try to adjust it with your tongue. You should speak out about it. If you can’t do that, you should at least feel the injustice in your heart.”
― A Genocide Foretold: Reporting on Survival and Resistance in Occupied Palestine

“Apocalypse?"
"Yes, apocalypse! What a silly word. I can tell you there's no word like it in Ojibwe. Well, I never heard a word like that from my elders anyway."
Evan nodded, giving the elder his full attention.
"The world was ending," she went on. "Our world isn't ending. It already ended. It ended when the Zhaagnaash came into our original home down south on that bay and took it from us. That was our world. When the Zhaagnaash cut down all the trees and fished all the fish and forced us out of there, that's when our world ended. They made us come all the way up here. This is not our homeland! But we hade to adapt and luckily we already knew how to hunt and live on the land. We learned to live here!"
She became more animated as she went on. Her small hands swayed as she emphasized the words she wanted to highlight. "But then they followed us up here and started taking our children away from us! Thats when our world ended again. And that wasn't the last time. We've seen what this....what's the world again?"
"Apocalypse."
"Yes, Apocalypse. We've had that over and over. But we always survived. Were still here. And well still be here, even if the power and the radios don't come back on and we never see any white people ever again.”
