"I use the analogy of the robber and the policeman consciously. Zionists have penned a narrative where they are a force for good, legitimately fighting off intruders. But the reality, of course, is the inverse. Colonialism is the robber and the policeman at once, committing the crime and legalizing it."

"If we are assessing a certain idological project ..., why not judge it based on how it materially manifests rather than on the perceived attributes of its subjects? Zionism is best defined by its material manifestations---Zionism is what Zionism does. When Zionism's most recent manifestation is genocide, ... what difference does it make how the grieving grieve?

Some of the best writing I've ever read. First passage:
We die a lot. We die in fleeting headlines, in between our breaths. Our death is so quotidian that journalists report it as though they're reporting the weather: Cloudy skies, light showers, and 3,000 Palestinians dead in the past ten days. And much like the weather, only God is responsible - not armed settlers, not targeted drone strikes.
