Important read. Frustrating at times because I just wanted to scream, “How is this not obvious to others?!” But, the propaganda machine against Palestinians is sometimes beyond our comprehension especially with the colonizers having an endless supply of lies and disinformation to spread.
“The very quality of propaganda—illogic—is precisely its strongest suit, because it is a distraction. Distraction from what? The focal point: colonialism, siege, military occupation.”
“Palestine is a microcosm of the world: wretched, raging, fraught, and fragmented. On fire. Stubborn. Ineligible. Dignified. The lens we lend the Palestinian reveals how we see each other, how we see everything else.”

Wow this book is such an insightful view on Palestine and the Palestinian People. At times poetic and gut wrenchingly beautiful and others deeply informative. El-Kurd was able to verbalize many of the concepts and feelings I have had about the Palestinian genocide but have not had the words to describe.
