     Gaza has shown all Palestinians - and the world - that it can withstand total war, and not budge from the ground upon which it stands. It tells the world, with justifiable pride, that the occupiers threw everything they had at us, and there was not another Nakba.

     Gaza tells Israel that Palestinians exist, and that they will not be pacified until and unless Israelis talk to them on equal terms about equal rights.

     In a war of liberation, the weak and vastly outgunned can succeed against overwhelming military odds. These wars are battles of will. It is not the battle that matters, but the ability to keep on fighting.

     «Never before had Palestinian fighters and civilians shown this level of resistance......

     What Israel has lost in it's campaign to crush Gaza is incalculable.
     Israel has lost not only the Global South, it has lost the support of a whole generation in the West......»

     It may take many more years for that realisation to sink in, but for some it already has: “Even if we conquer the entire Middle East, and even if everyone surrenders to us, we won’t win this war,” columnist Yair Assulin wrote in Haaretz.

     But what everyone in Gaza who stayed put has achieved is of historic significance.
