“Everybody have equal rights to a life of full flourishing. Philosophy slowly, slowly has given us arguments saying, look, you already committed to your own life flourishing, and you're being inconsistent if you don't expand it.

“The tragedy of the people of Palestine is that their country was “given” by a foreign power to another people for the creation of a new state.

How much longer is the world willing to endure this spectacle of wanton cruelty?”
