More Palestinian land has disappeared, more Palestinians have been dispossessed, more Palestinians have been killed. And so we have these little pieces of land that keep on shrinking, and Jerusalem keeps disappearing, and there's aggression, whether Palestinians are resisting or not. But then we're told, why can't you people just pursue peace? Why can't you just believe in a better way?

All along, we're hearing Israeli ministers become far more radical and open about their intentions to wipe us off the face of the earth. And that is actually their policy. It's not just slogans. It's not fringe elements. Actual Israeli ministers, starting from the prime minister himself, who has executed a policy of the removal of all Palestinian lands and Palestinian lives.

And then we're told peace, peace, peace, peace. And it is awfully ugly when you use the language of peace to suffocate the work of justice. You know, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., one of his early sermons was something along the lines of when peace is obnoxious. when peace is obnoxious. It was in the 1950s around the Montgomery bus boycott.

And he talked about how this obsession with the language of peace is usually used to try to keep people in status quo and make them complacent with their miserable situation. That has been the story of the Palestinian people, that they've been told that if you do things differently, then you will find peace.

But everything the Palestinians have tried inside and outside has been met with repression. The most violent forms of it, they're in Gaza and beyond. And so, look, I start from the place of wanting to see peace. I want to see a situation in which no innocent people lose their lives. But we have to analyze the situation with some justice, with some fairness.

What would any group of people do in this situation? That doesn't mean that you hope for hell. That means that you analyze the existing circumstances of hell, which was life in Gaza even before October 7th.

So violence, again, the point is, is that you ask yourself why we've been silent about the violence all of this time. And you know what? When people say, well, what about this? Well, what about that? My response is this. What I would love to see is effective international bodies of justice
