Here is a letter from an International Solidarity Movement activist called Emma, as posted on the ISM yahoo group:
There you have it, in black and white. An ISM activist who thinks it is perfectly legitimate to blow up buses and cafes, lynch people and pump bullets into a toddler’s head.Two days ago, at our regular English lessons with high school students in Rafah, a conversation developed surrounding the word ‘violence.’ There was a question asked about Palestinian violence. The students refused the question based on the assumption that actions taken by Palestinians against the Israeli occupation are violence. The students explained to us that a people under occupation legally have the right to oppose this occupation, and that this is resistance, not violence.
Since the conversation I have been thinking a lot about resistance. Considering the inhumane actions taken daily by the Israeli army against Palestinian civilians, and the circumstances in which in the West Bank and Gaza they have been trapped inside small areas and occupied, do they not have the right to resist? If the choice is to resist in any way possible, or die silenced, what would you do?
