Gentlemen, you have transformed
our country into a graveyard
You have planted bullets in our heads,
and organized massacres
Gentlemen, nothing passes like that
without account
All what you have done
to our people is
registered in notebooks
—Mahmoud Darwish
Gehad, the image you paired with these words makes them even more powerful than they are alone. My heart weeps for your people — are we not all One?

Indeed! We are one with some subtle differences such as hue, education, race, cultures, physiognomy, nationalities, etc. We all are human beings taste life, death, joy, pain, calamities, success, failure, etc! We are one but we incline to love greed and gory scenes more than anything else. We are still ONE though!

We misunderstand the holy scriptures and follow our greed and caprices in the name of protecting faith and religion.
