"Somewhere it's jarring for me the use we did with the name, Dir Yassin, like we got it out its historical context, and now Dir Yassin is a name of a punk band from Israel. Dir Yassin is not a hardcore band. Dir Yassin was a village near Jerusalem. Dir Yassin is an example to the way in which life are treated in Israel, past and present. The massacre in Dir Yassin is the beginning of the term 'no choice', which became sacred ever since. According to it we start wars, murder and torture people, bombing houses and blinding children. Rooted in every mouth and in every possible situation. There's no such thing as or a situation of no choice. Maybe due to being raised in a state which put me to the test, who am I and what my values are, against my family and friends, the values I was raised upon, and the entire society. In this situation I decided to say no to something almost stronger than me, which made me stronger than every soldier who is capable to shoot under pressure, but can't refuse an order when he is being told to shoot the eyes of an 11 yo kid who is throwing stones. I know there's a choice"
