Free Minds for a Free Palestine

Falastin quote

By Mary Rizzo • Jun 11th, 2008 at 8:16 • Category: Falastin, Quotes

Palestine solidarity must build solidarity with Palestinian resistance. Not a dunum of Palestinian land will be freed without a cost to those who now occupy it; no rights worth mentioning will be won without liberating land. In the famous phrase of Malcolm X "by any means necessary," the operative word is "necessary." A solidarity movement that demands of the Palestinian people that they choose tactics of resistance that result in devastating costs for the Palestinian community, without significant cost to Israeli occupiers, can't be considered solidarity.
Lana Habash and Noah Cohen
