Unidentified Palestinian woman: "What my mother instilled in me I pass on to my children. I teach them that this land is ours and must be protected, through both the resistance (i.e., also includes violence) and the words… The [Palestinian refugees’] right of return is a right that it is impossible for us to relinquish… Palestine is ours and we will return."
