Zitat des Tages von Ayman Odeh:
Netanyahu personally is leading the campaign against the Arabs.
Abu Mazen has no more hope for Netanyahu's approach. He's searching for a way to establish the Palestinian state. He doesn't want a militarized struggle with Israel.
I can argue like a Marxist about whether there was a global Jewish nation 200 years ago or whether it was just a religion. But this really doesn't matter.
There can't be real peace without improving the integration of Arab society and making it part of the political game.
I come from a place of loving people - all human people.
In reality, civil rights are more important than national rights. They're the content, the day-to-day: work, life. But people are sensitive to national rights.
Just as Jews in the U.S. joined Martin Luther King, I'm sure hundreds of thousands of Jews will join the struggle for civil equality in Israel.
When I read Malcolm X, I didn't agree with it all, but I inhaled it; I connected to his rage.
The struggle for equality is really a struggle for democracy, and that's why it's a struggle for all the population.
Our beautiful homeland is enough for us, Arabs and Jews. If we turn her into a battlefield, she will spit us out.
If you believe you're a nation, then I accept you as a nation.
I believe that the U.S. is the strongest country in the whole world and the country that supports Israel the most. I believe that it has the strength to push Israel towards peace.
I flee from symbols. I think those who don't want to solve problems go to the symbols. I'm looking for content.
My goal is that Jews feel safe in their country.
My biggest goal became to bring the weight of and the voice of the Arabs into the Israeli political sphere.
The Arab population does not want to turn inward and be isolated.
I have no doubt that the Palestinian Arab leadership made a mistake when it did not accept the partition plan in 1947, but I want to try to understand it.
I was a member of the Haifa City Council when I was 23 years old, which made me the youngest city councilman in Israel.
When I began my political career, I identified with Malcolm X.
My people are from Haifa.
If Jews don't come to Nazareth, Arabs don't go to Afula. There is fear on both sides.
A man who dies, no matter how terrible his crime was, must be brought to burial.
Arabs don't have to be the victims of the Jewish war between Lieberman and Netanyahu.
I don't accept the Zionist idea.
I do not put red lines on the Arab Palestinian nation.
The Right everywhere in the world gains more by forming a security agenda while the Left gains from a social agenda.
Occupation is the Palestinian people's tragedy, but also Israel's present. We must liberate both people from the occupation.
Israel cannot be a democracy if it occupies land of other people.
