"Remember the solidarity shown to Palestine here and everywhere... and
remember also that there is a cause to which many people have committed
themselves, difficulties and terrible obstacles notwithstanding. Why?
Because it is a just cause, a noble ideal, a moral quest for equality and
human rights." Edward Said
