"But it is true that we do not realise how much time passes; the world is moving faster today than it was then. And what is happening there is not encouraging. The situation in Gaza for example, literally makes me sick."

"It is one of my oldest commitments and it is central to my activism. I do not spend a night without waking up to follow the news feed and lament the fate of the poor victims. We are noe three months into the war and the situation is becoming truly unbearable. To go back in time, I even consider that the Palestinian question was one of the reasons for the political commitments of those of my generations."

"It was during this period that the Marxism-Leninist movements emerged and that protest against the regime increased. Young people already consider that the powers in place were unable to satisfy the political and social demands within their own countries, and that with the Palestinian question, they proved that they were also incapable of defending a cause that fascinated the entire Arab world in the midst of a Pan-Arabist surge."

"We were convinced that only Arab unity could get us out of the political lethargy in which we lived and that this could bring us freedom and democracy."

"In Morocco, the 1967 war came after the kidnapping of Mehdi Ben Barks and the establishment of the state of emergency, which exacerbated tensions between the government and the left-wing opposition and reinforced the revolutionary need in our country."

"The Moudawana reform is more than symbolic. It’s a substantial shift that impacts real, everyday lives. It represents a triumph of our struggle and a step towards real equality."
