Nothing Is Harder On The Soul, Than

We Are Captives Of What We Love, What We Desire, And What We Are.

I Am Not A Lover Of Israel, Of Course. I Have No Reason To Be. But I Don't Hate Jews.

We Have To Understand - Not Justify - What Gives Rise To This Tragedy. It's Not Because They're Looking For Beautiful Virgins In Heaven, As Orientalists Portray It. Palestinian People Are In Love With Life. If We Give Them Hope - A Political Solution - They'll Stop Killing Themselves.

May Poetry And God's Name Have Mercy On Us!

I've Built My Homeland, I've Even Founded My State - In My Language.
