REVENGE IS IN THE AIR

"When Yasser Arafat came here and the peace process was working, I was happy. I was 13 and went into the street carrying a photograph of Arafat in one hand and a Palestinian flag in the other. Now I realize that did not work. The Israelis gave us a tiny, tiny bit of land and nothing more. Only closures, and a bad economy, and attacks on our people. I AM SO ANGRY, I FEEL I MUST DO SOMETHING."

--Souifedean Ammous
Age 17, Ramallah
"Autonomous" Palestinian area

 

"We want to hear explosions in Tel Aviv.
Blow them up! Blow them up!"

--Chant from a group of women while slapping their faces in grief at the funeral in Ramallah for Mohia-din Sharif
