Perhaps we have seen in a summer afternoon, a lemon tree silhouetted against the background of white clouds and blue sky, or a night he heard the heady scent of orange blossoms to understand the stubbornness of Salma Zidane, the star of the movie "The garden of lemons," to save her lemon grove, to understand his attachment to the land of their fathers.
The same stubbornness, the same courage that pushes an entire people to resist, after three weeks of uninterrupted bombing.
"In my reading of the last hundred years by the Israeli-Zionist, there was a condition like this: 'If we fight hard and defeat them very well, and if we erect walls and give them sufficient life impossible in any way give up'. But this has not happened. It did not work. Today, among the Palestinians, there is an even greater desire not to give up. Based on my subjective experience, I can say that the Palestinians of any generation feel a strong sense of injustice. They feel that justice denied forcing them to keep fighting. "
These are the words of Edward W. Said, written nine years ago in" My right of return ", but are even more true today.
