About This Quote

In the "most dangerous places on the planet" report, the U.S. State Department said that "the most dangerous place in the world to be a non-violent protester is the Gaza Strip." The report called for a change in U.S. foreign policy toward Israel and Palestinian territories, because of what it calls the Israeli government's "expansionist" actions against Palestinian civilians. The report also cited "attacks by Israeli settlers on Palestinians in the West Bank."
