"It was 2001. Khatib watched in horror as Israeli soldiers shot an unarmed friend at a checkpoint. Two weeks later, the militant Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade made a revenge attack on the checkpoint, killing seven soldiers.

"My first reaction was 'Good for Al Aqsa!' " Khatib said. Then he realized the dead soldiers belonged to a different unit, not the one on duty when his friend was shot.

"It made me wonder: This cycle of death, of violent action and reaction, how we can break it?"

You know I find it simply amazing how much of a threat nonviolence is Rat.

“There
are only two forces in the world, the sword and the spirit. In the long
run the sword will always be conquered by the spirit.”

Because nonviolence means noncompliance. Since power is never taken and always given, if those who are oppressed simply stop following orders, those that give them find themselves without any power, except the power to main and destroy.

"As above so below" goes the occult saying. Right thought, right action prevails in the end & is the only way to bring to fruition the words, "Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
