Discussion is heating up at Naseem Tarawnah‘s post entitled The Way We Fight.
On occupation, resistance and war, he writes: “Instead we say ‘they started it’ or ‘they’ve done worse’.

We let the people we fight to lead us down the slippery slope into the darkness. The worse they act the worse we react.”
