When someone says that it is Israel's fault that there is no water in #Gaza:

“Fearless progress toward justice often means ferocious pushback “That’s because hate never goes away. … It only hides under the rocks. And when it’s given oxygen it comes out from under that rock. And that’s why we know this truth as well: silence is complicity. We cannot remain silent.”
