Rachel Corrie
“I think it was smart that you’re wary of using the word “terrorism,” and if you talk about the cycle of violence, or “an eye for an eye,” you could be perpetuating the idea that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is a balanced conflict, instead of a largely unarmed people against the fourth most powerful military in the world.”
Rachel Corrie, My Name is Rachel Corrie

Omar Barghouti
“BDS is perhaps the most ambitious, empowering, and promising Palestinian-led global movement for justice and rights. BDS has the capacity to challenge Israel's colonial rule and apartheid in a morally consistent, effective, and, crucially, intelligent manner.”
Omar Barghouti, Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions: The Global Struggle for Palestinian Rights
