Everyone who supports Israel is a Zionist.

You are either a Zionist or an anti-Zionist.

I think protest and actions have to be organised against the Israelis and their backers. There needs to be a concerted high profile campaign to raise awareness of the people in this country.

I am not very moved by historical apologies.

I think attacks on civilians in fact boost morale.

A truly vibrant and creative culture depends on a system of education which is not divided along class and sectarian lines.

America is the one that leads the effort to make sure the freedom of navigation in the South China Sea is protected.

The poor man is ruined as soon as he begins to ape the rich.

I feel I'm pretty zen and laid back. I don't have a lot of rage in my real life.

When lilacs last in the dooryard bloom'd / And the great star early droop'd in the western sky in the night, / I mourn'd, and yet shall mourn with ever-returning spring.
