Why am I throwing rocks? How many ways to expressing love?
Martin Luther King, Jr., said in 1956:
1) If peace means accepting second-class citizenship, I don’t want it.
2) If peace means keeping my mouth shut in the midst of injustice and evil, I don’t want it.
3) If peace means being complacently adjusted to a deadening status quo, I don’t want peace.
4) If peace means a willingness to be exploited economically, dominated politically, humiliated and segregated, I don’t want peace.

So in a passive, non-violent manner, we must revolt against this peace.”
Caricature of Mona Lisa by Oussama Diab
“We do not throw these rocks with hate.
We throw these rocks with love,
Love for a murdered brother,
Love for a sick grandmother without medicine,
Love for a family we cannot visit,
Love for a world we will never travel to,
Love for a freedom we will never experience,
Love for an ancient people.
We throw these rocks with love for Palestine.”
Love for an ancient people.
We throw these rocks with love for Palestine.”
