“How come we don’t have an intifada in [the United States]? … It is about time that we have an intifada in this country that change[s] fundamentally the political dynamics in here. And we know… they’re gonna say it’s some Palestinian being too radical, well you haven’t seen radicalism yet!”

Bazian uttered these words during the Second Intifada (2000-2005) when more than 1,000 Israelis were killed, and thousands were injured in stabbings, shootings, suicide bombings, and other terrorist attacks. 70% were civilian fatalities.
