Favorite Quotations:
“In 1897, under order of First Zionist Congress president Theodor Herzl, two Austrian rabbis traveled to Palestine to explore the possibility of locating a Jewish state there. “The bride is beautiful,” the rabbis cabled Herzl, “but she is married to another man.” That “other man” was the Palestinian Arab nation, long established in the region as a political entity. Undeterred, Herzl pressed on with his program of emigration, ignoring Palestine’s existing occupants and creating in the process what came to be known as the ‘Arab question.’”
– Avi Shlaim

“Everybody’s worried about stopping terrorism. Well, there’s a really easy way: stop participating in it.”
–Noam Chomsky

“The socialist revolution is seriously compromised if it comes through a political revolution.”
–Pierre-Joseph Proudhon

“If the Nuremberg laws were applied, then every post-war American president would have been hanged.”
–Noam Chomsky

“Propaganda is to a democracy what the bludgeon is to a totalitarian state.”
–Noam Chomsky

“The consistent anarchist, then, should be a socialist, but a socialist of a particular sort. He will not only oppose alienated and specialized labor and look forward to the appropriation of capital by the whole body of workers, but he will also insist that this appropriation be direct, not exercised by some elite force acting in the name of the proletariat.”
–Noam Chomsky
