Quotes by Beverly Magid (?)

“We鈥檙e having another meeting tonight, if you can come,鈥� Yaakov said. 鈥淭he soldiers are watching the village very closely,鈥� she said, speaking in a whisper. 鈥淭hey are on the lookout for anyone who might be involved in organizing.鈥�
Arguments continued in all corners of the room. One man vehemently warned, 鈥淎nyone involved in advancing reforms or revolution against the government could face prison or a firing squad.”
