'Some of the things that were said and written by early founders of Zionism sounded like they could have been said and written by Nazis. David Ben-Gurion, the first PM of Israel, said, "Jews are sterile masses living parasitically off of an alien economic body."'

"Israeli soldiers target children as a hobby. It‘s not a state project. The genocide is a national project."

"I think I‘m perfectly correct to say that Israelis are almost a different breed. Nowhere else, I believe, on this planet, will you find a society that is so psychopathic."

"Being a Palestinian means that I am disqualified from sharing about life in Palestine in many Christian gatherings or even from leading Bible studies in Christian conferences! For many of us Palestinian Christians, this has made us question whether or not God actually loves us as Palestinians."

'I sometimes think that American Jewry “discovering” the Nazi holocaust was worse than its having been forgotten…It has been used to justify criminal policies of the Israeli state and US support for these policies.'

"Looked at objectively, it can be argued that American diplomatic efforts in the Middle East have, if anything, made achieving peace between Palestinians and Israelis even more difficult."

"The same justifications typically crop up in many, if not all, conquest enterprises. The mythology of conquest is remarkably uniform – or, less charitably, banal. This is especially so of the ‘virgin land or wilderness’ myth."

"I have been distressed in my visit to the Holy Land. It reminded me of what happened to us blacks in South Africa. I have seen the humiliation of the Palestinians at checkpoints and roadblocks, suffering like us when young white police officers prevented us from moving about." - Desmond Tutu

"Haaretz reported that Israeli soldiers occupying Ramallah in 2002 ‘destroyed children’s paintings’ in the Palestinian Ministry of Culture, and ‘urinated and defecated everywhere’ in the building, even ‘managing to defecate into a photocopier’."

"Barak’s – and Clinton’s – fraud that Palestinians at Camp David rejected a maximally generous Israeli offer provided crucial moral cover for the horrors that ensued."

"The very existence of the Muslim-Christian Associations founded between 1918 and 1920 dispels two myths often propagated by those who don’t know any better: that the conflict is one between Muslims and Jews, and that Palestine had no national identity of its own before 1948."

'The Zionist Haganah bombed the Christian-owned Semiramis Hotel in the Katamon neighborhood of Jerusalem in January 1948. The explosion killed 26 civilians including at least one child and the Spanish vice-consul.'

"Palestine was not a desert waiting to come into bloom; it was a pastoral country on the verge of entering the 20th century as a modern society. Its colonization by the Zionist movement turned this process into a disaster for the majority of the native people living there."
