       #art #history: when asked, in 1970, by australian journalist, richard carleton, why the PFLP didn't engage in negotiations with the israeli state, ghassan kanafani (esteemed author & a leading figure of palestine's marxist resistance) explained that to do so would be 'a kind of conversation between the sword & the neck'. ghassan *should have* celebrated his 90th birthday yesterday, but he was assassinated by mossad in 1972.#ghassanKanafani #literature #palestine #gaza #resistance
