Fidel Castro, President of Cuba, revolutionary, and leader of the of the Non-Aligned Movement, speaking at the October 1979 UN General Assembly Session held in New York.
"The basis of just peace in the region begins with the total and unconditional withdrawal of Israel from all the occupied Arab territories and implies for the Palestinian people the return of all their occupied territories and the recovery of their inalienable national rights, including the right of return to their homeland, to self-determination and to the establishment of an independent State in Palestine."

“Revolutionaries didn't choose armed struggle as the best path, it's the path the oppressors imposed on the people. And so the people only have two choices: to suffer, or to fight."
— Fidel Castro, 1967

I know that many people feel hopeless, but we don't all have that luxury. The people in Gaza, they cannot choose, they can only strive for survival. Who are we to call ourselves hopeless?
Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories
This reminds me of Isabella Hammad's quote from Recognising The Stranger:
We who are not there, witnessing from afar, in what ways are we mutilating ourselves when we dissociate to cope? To remain human at this juncture is to remain in agony. Let us remain there: it is the more honest place from which to speak.
