?If every single Jew born anywhere in the world has the right to become an Israeli citizen, then all the Palestinians who were chucked out of Palestine by the Zionist Government should have the same right, very simple.?
― Tariq Ali
?People who call themselves supporters of Israel are actually supporters of its moral degeneration and ultimate destruction.?
― Noam Chomsky
I am frequently asked if I have visited Israel, whereas yet, it is simply assumed that I have. Well, I don?t travel. I really don?t, and if I did, I probably wouldn?t visit Israel. I remember how it was in 1948 when Israel was being established and all my Jewish friends were ecstatic, I was not. I said: what are we doing? We are establishing ourselves in a ghetto, in a small corner of a vast Muslim sea. The Muslims will never forget nor forgive, and Israel, as long as it exists, will be embattled. I was laughed at, but I was right. I can?t help but feel that the Jews didn?t really have the right to appropriate a territory only because 2000 years ago, people they consider their ancestors, were living there. History moves on and you can?t really turn it back. "
― Isaac Asimov,
