As a world, you told us to endure the worst terrors and humiliations of the occupation, without turning to violence.
You told us to teach our children love and science, even if Israel has bombed every school.
You told us to sing and smile and cook through our suffering.
You told us not to be beggars, nor to starve in silence.
You told us to resist, but without any weapons.
To count on your “eyes” to defend us.
Chef Mahmoud did all of those things. And was assassinated by drone strike.
Are we your perfect victims now?
