Lawrence of Cyberia--Nakba Quote Of The Day: Nathan Chofshi

From Lawrence of Cyberia Blog:

"We came and turned the native Arabs into tragic refugees. And still we dare to slander and malign them, to besmirch their name. Instead of being deeply ashamed of what we did and trying to undo some of the evil we committed ... we justify our terrible acts and even attempt to glorify them."
-- Nathan Chofshi; cited in The Other Exodus by Erskine Childers.
