Quote by Brigitte Gabriel

“A favorite Palestinian tactic was to set up a couple of cannons or rocket launchers in a Christian village, fire a few rounds into Israel, and then quickly withdraw, knowing that Israel’s return fire would fall on innocent Christian civilians. This created a double benefit in the eyes of the Palestinians: Lebanese Christians would die, and the Israelis would be vilified and hated even more. This has become a public relations ploy that has been authored and perfected by the Palestinians ever since.”

The only means to fight this unacceptable situation is international Islamic cooperation. This is the only way to encounter the world-wide Jewish conspiracy against Islam.”

Ever wonder why there is never a call to divest assets from Jordan? It is not in the political interest of the leaders of great economies to upset the Arabs.”

“A lifespan of a leaf is equal to the seasons. And its purpose though small, contributes to the bigger picture. Being who you are—even if you are a leaf—is no ordinary thing.”

“un soir de guerre et ceux qui regardent parmi nous bouche bée voient la beauté devenir effroyable coucher de soleil, souffle de nuages gris aux stries rouges nous observons une maison qui brûle tout l'après-midi, toute la nuit toutes les nuits nous regardons un autre feu qui brûle Mardi Butler house Mercredi radio grenade libre Jeudi poste de police [...] à chaque bruit nouveau de la guerre dans la froide lumière de cinq heures du matin il manque quelque chose quelques parties du corps quelques lieux de ce monde une île, un endroit auquel penser Je marche sur un rocher d'un rivage de la Barbade cherchant où était grenade à présent le vol d un bombardier américain laisse une trace de viol dans la chambre de chaque réveil que devons nous faire aujourd'hui prêt à combattre couchés dans le couloir à les attendre la peur nous tient éveillés et nous fait rêver de sommeil”

“American spy agencies seemed rattled by the experiments too. I was shocked when the next Worldwide Threat Assessment — the annual report presented by the U.S. intelligence community to the Senate Armed Services Committee — described genome editing as one of the six weapons of mass destruction and proliferation that nation-states might try to develop, at great risk to America.”
