Thank you. A few years ago I would have not understood this, but now after thousands of hours of reading, I do.

The vast majority of us have been taken for fools.

I am sorry it has taken so long for us to wake up.

We must turn the tide, there is no alternative.

Thank you for the prescient and profound quotes from the great Malcolm X! A teacher and model for us all!

Lack of decent education/inability to listen for longer than 1 min. Shopping and living the good life while the USA perpetrated crimes/wars in other countries. Stupid reality shows that play for all the dim people.

Thank you for this Sam. I always thought Malcolm would be assassinated which is why I grieve hearing these words now while Zionsts take over a new Empire.

I don't think Americans or most people in the world know this.....all one has to do is look on Forbes List at corporations/billionaires Zionists!

Malcolm X, MLK, Fred Hampton and others are some of my greatest heroes. Had they, along with the Kennedy brothers not been murdered by the Israeli mafia, we would be living in a different world today.

Amazing article for an amazing man. Malcolm X's sixth sense to identify systemic constraints purposefully designed to curtail the underprivileged to attain basic human rights is beyond incredible. A necessary trait required for leadership!

Also, the relationship between Israel & African countries during 60's, colonialism through dollarism, is completely new part of narrative for myself to discover. It further highlights the complexity of the Palestinian-Israeli narrative, instead of the reductionist "miraculous rise" narrative we're consistently been fed.

Clear words and vision, resonating through the years, even now stronger or with new overtones... thanks Mr Husseini, again.

There must be a permanent ceasefire in Gaza in order to comply with the ICJ ruling. Not with Palestinians suffering under oppressive conditions, but as a place where all live with peace and equality. It is time for Pope Francis to do more than talk. He must go to Gaza and make a stand for peace and freedom.

Let us also support UNRWA. If our governments won’t act in accordance with humanity, then we will. https://www.unrwausa.org/donate

These are a few small things we can do. If we can do more, let us do more.

Thank you for the reminder, or bringing to awareness to those who had not known of Malcolm X. I was fortunate enough to have gone to hear him speak at the Embassy Ballroom in Los Angeles in the mid-1960s.

You mentioned your previous focus on bring charges before the ICJ, which has been done. Now we are seeing the charges of illegal occupation going forward this week. In America, we need to be working on how to enforce 18 U.S. Code § 1091, in the US. This is the law that incorporated the Genocide Convention into US law. What about a Writ of Mandamus, or even citizens' arrests as part of every protest? Let's find a way to bring charges against the Biden Administration before the election. It might put a bit of fear into whomever might be the next president.

I have been wondering about this for a while. Can we change anything without violence?

Violence would give the powerful an excuse to clamp down. I guess I’ve answered my own question. And kind of what we are seeing playing out in Gaza.

Continue rioting on social media, vote harder? I think I’ll go and listen to those words in the links. Malcolm X was discerning and prescient.

My hero and mentor. I will 'always' honor this HUNAN-BEING, as there are so few on this earth. His logic and wisdom toward existence is what I most admire about the man.

Rest in life El-Hajj!
