And, I would suggest, the kind of outpouring of the will to resistance that we have witnessed during the past four weeks always comes as a surprise. When they are fairly well prepared, an oppressed people's moment of all-out rebellion can also be their moment of triumph. At the very least, it is a time when the oppressor can be forced to offer substantial concessions. The Intifada shows no sign of abating. One would hope, though, that in their boundless heroism, the Palestinians are also, even now, creating new foundations for a new readiness.
Submission is no longer an option, but neither is death.
There is another way, and we must begin carving it out now.
