— “if Zionism is so dangerous for the Jews and if Zionism makes the Arabs so wretched, maybe it was [from the start] a mistake?” - Morris lacks any meaningful answers.
This question made me pause because it made me reflect on the moral cost of Zionism itself. Although this movement was created to ensure Jewish survival, it also brought devastation to Palestinians, making its purpose morally conflicted. Morris was unable to answer this question because it seems to reflect how a project born from trauma can end up repeating that trauma for others. It made me realize how history’s attempts to solve one injustice can create another, and how silence may hide painful truths.
