Statehood Quotes

“If the Bahreini royal family can have an embassy, a state, and a seat at the UN, why should the twenty-five million Kurds not have a claim to autonomy? The alleviation of their suffering and the assertion of their self-government is one of the few unarguable benefits of regime change in Iraq. It is not a position from which any moral retreat would be allowable.”

“Sonnet of Occupation With just weeks of lockdown, You all feel restless and bland. That is how everyday life is, For people in occupied land. Imagine living your whole life, Subject to restriction and suspicion. Ask a Palestinian or a Kashmiri, They'll reveal the face of occupation. Life, liberty and happiness, Are the rights of every being. Whenever a government violates them, Civilized humanity must intervene. I call to all humans far and near, Rest not till statehood is declared.”

“إننا ما دمنا لا نفكر السياسة في قياس دولة ما ومجتمع ما ماضون نسبح في فراغ يبتلعنا ونحن نزعم تعقّله والسيطرة عليه، فإذ نستعيض عن الدول بما نظنّه الصحّ والخطأ العائمين في سديم، نكون كمن يلعب كرة القدم قبل أن يرسم الملعب.”
