"I’ve seen footage of Israeli mothers with their children and I saw beautiful people there; I’ve seen footage of Palestinian mothers with their children and I saw beautiful people there. They are not the despicable source of wrongness across the globe, you know it’s true, but they share the blood (like we all share bloodlines of history’s tormenters). Yes, they are of the species that fuels the ire and perpetuates annihilation, enslavement, hate, torture, inhumanity, for sake of greed and dread. But they are just people, just ..humans ..being. Confused and decent and trying to make ends meet. & I don’t believe we can EVER overcome this dire state until we stop lumping people into groups, oversimplifying individuality, over-manipulating connectivity until the deeper meaning is obscured by doubts & fears."
