Refaat Alareer was killed by @Israel today.
In his recent interview in October,
"There is no way out of Gaza. What should we do... drown? Commit mass suicide? Is this what Israel wants? And we're not going to do that.. I am an academic, Probably the toughest thing I have at home is an Expo Marker. But if the Israelis invade us, If they barge at us, open door to door to massacre us, I am going to use that Marker, Throw it at the Israeli soldiers, even if that is the last thing that I will be able to do. And this is the feeling of everybody in Palestine. We are helpless and we have nothing to lose"
