Creative & Constructive Coexistence

Non-Violent Resistance

in Martin Luther King’s words

Over twenty years ago we edited and published a little red book in two bilingual versions, English-Arabic and English-Hebrew, that were used in schools and universities in Israel (from Jerusalem to Acre) and in Palestine (from Jenin and Nablus to Gaza).

https://messageriesdelapaix.org/index.php/2025/02/21/annotated-martin-luther-king-bilingual-books/

Given the post-2023 disasters and their ongoing consequences, we are re-editing it, differently organized :

I- COMMUNITY OF MAN

1. Everybody can be great. Because anybody can serve. You don’t have to have a college degree to serve. You don’t have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve. You don’t have to know about Plato and Aristotle to serve. You don’t have to know Einstein’s theories of relativity to serve. You don’t have to know the second theory of thermodynamics in physics to serve.

2. We are prone to judge success by the index of our salaries or the size of our automobiles, rather than by the quality of our service and relationship to humanity.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

3. As long as there is poverty in the world I can never be rich, even if I have a billion dollars. As long as diseases are rampant and millions of people in this world cannot expect to live more than twenty-eight or thirty years, I can never be totally healthy even if I just got a good checkup at Mayo Clinic. I can never be what I ought to be until you are what you ought to be. This is the way the world is made. No individual or nation can stand out boasting of being independent. We are interdependent.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

4. All men are interdependent. Every nation is an heir of a vast treasury of ideas and labour to which both the living and the dead of all nations have contributed. Whether we realize it or not, each of us lives eternally “in the red”. We are everlasting debtors to known and unknown men and women. When we rise in the morning, we go into the bathroom where we reach for a sponge which is provided for us by a Pacific islander. We reach for soap that is created for us by Europeans. Then at the table we drink coffee which is provided for us by a South American, or tea by a Chinese, or cocoa by a West African. Before we leave for our jobs we are already beholden* to more than half of the world.

* beholden : indebted

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

5. I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for the mind, and dignity, equality, and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centered men have torn
down, other-centered men can build up.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

6. What is needed today […] is a committed altruism which recognizes this truth. True altruism is more than the capacity to pity; it is the capacity to empathize. Pity is feeling sorry for someone; empathy is feeling sorry with someone. Empathy is fellow feeling for the person in need – his pain, agony, and burdens.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

7. An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

8. Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. This is the judgement. Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, What are you doing for others?

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

9. The ultimate measure of man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy. The true neighbour will risk his position, his prestige, and even his life for the welfare of others. In dangerous valleys and hazardous pathways, he will lift some bruised and beaten brother to a higher and more noble life.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

10. Courage faces fear and thereby masters it. Cowardice represses fear and is thereby mastered by it. Courageous men never lose the zest for living even though their life situation is zestless; cowardly men, overwhelmed by the uncertainties of life, lose the will to live. We must constantly build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

11. Many people fear nothing more terribly than to take a position which stands out sharply and clearly from the prevailing opinion. The tendency of most is to adopt a view that is so ambiguous that it will include everything and so popular that it will include everybody. [Many] men who cherish [high] and noble ideals hide them […] for fear of being called different.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

12. For years now we have heard the word “Wait!”. It rings in the ear of every Negro piercing familiarity. Perhaps it is easy for those who have never fel the stinging darts of segregation to say, “Wait”. But when you have seen vicious mobs lynch your mothers and fathers at will and drown your sisters and brothers at whim; when you have seen hate-filled policemen curse, kick, and even kill your black brothers and sisters; when you see the vast majority of our twenty million Negro brothers smothering in an airtight cage of poverty in the midst of an affluent society… when you are forever fighting a degenerating sense of “nobodiness” – then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait.

II- CIVIL RIGHTS, JUSTICE & FREEDOM

13. There comes a time when people get tired of being trampled by oppression. There comes a time when people get tired of being plunged into the abyss of exploitation and nagging injustice. The story of Montgomery is the story of fifty thousand such Negroes who were willing to substitute tired feet for tired souls, and walk the streets of Montgomery until the walls of segregation were finally battered by the forces of justice.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

14. The deep rumbling of discontent that we hear today is the thunder of disinherited masses, raising from dungeons of oppression to the bright hills of freedom, in one majestic chorus the raising masses singing, in the words of our freedom song, “Ain’t gonna let nobody turn us around”. All over the world, like a fever, the freedom movement is spreading in the widest liberation in history. The great masses of people are determined to end the exploitation of their races and land. They are awake and moving toward their goal like a tidal wave. You can hear them rumbling in every village, street, on the docks, in the houses, among the students […] and at political meetings. These developments should not surprise any student of history. Oppressed people cannot remain oppressed forever. The yearning for freedom eventually manifests itself.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

15. There comes a time when a moral man can’t obey a law which his conscience tells him is unjust. And the important thing is that when he does that, he willingly accepts the penalty because if he refuses to accept the penalty, then he becomes reckless, and he becomes an anarchist. There were those individuals in every age and generation who were willing to say, “I will be obedient to a higher law”. It is important to see that there are times when a manmade law is out of harmony with the moral law of the universe.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

16. Human progress is never automatic nor inevitable. Even a superficial look at history reveals that no social advance rolls in on the wheels of inevitability. Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals. Without persistent effort, time itself becomes an ally of the insurgent and primitive forces of irrational emotionalism and social destruction. This is no time for apathy or complacency. This is a time for vigorous and positive action.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

17. The hope of the world is still in dedicated minorities. The trailblazers in human, academic, scientific, and religious freedom have always been in the minority. That creative minority of whites absolutely committed to civil rights can make it clear to the larger society that vacillation and procrastination on the question of racial justice can no longer be tolerated. It will take such a small committed minority to work unrelentingly to win the uncommitted majority.

No comments on Creative & Constructive Coexistence

18. When evil men plot, good men must plan. When evil men burn and bomb, good men must build and bind. When evil men shout ugly words of hatred, good men must commit themselves to the glories of love. When evil men would seek to perpetrate an unjust status quo, good men must seek to bring into being a real order of justice.

Mustafa 7 ans, Tasneem 5 ans

Trois ans sans école, sous les bombes, les missiles, sur les routes, d’un camp à un autre. L’école aujourd’hui ? Ce sont beaucoup de tentes avec cinquante enfants ou plus, assis par terre, et deux classes en même temps.

Voici Zara, sept ans. Son père travaillait dans un centre commercial. Il a été tué par un tir en juillet 2025, alors qu’il se rendait à un poste américain de distribution d’aide. Il voulait rapporter du pain.

Mustafa et Tasneem (tout en haut de la page à droite), vous les voyez sur le chemin des classes – Tasneem au jardin d’enfants, Mustafa en CE1. Leur père a été tué en octobre 2023, dans un bombardement, alors qu’il marchait dans la rue. Ils vivent avec leur mère sous une tente.

Wateen, sous Yara, a quatre ans. Son frère, Moath, cinq ans. Leur père était chauffeur de taxi. Inutile de dire qu’il n’y a plus de taxis à Gaza ?

Enfin, le septième, en jaune (photo en bas de la page), c’est Hassan, six ans, dont le père était appariteur en faculté. C’est simple, lumineux. Leurs sourires, à Mustafa et Tasmeen sur le chemin de l’école, à Yara, Wateen et son frère Moath, nous sont adressés, photographiés par notre ami Nour. Le père de Nour, vous l’avez vu dans la Lettre de juillet. Il enseignait la littérature anglaise du dix-neuvième siècle, à l’université (rasée fin 2023).

Le guetteur, Mahmoud, neuf ans, sur la première photo (tout en haut de la page), est le fils d’un pharmacien.

Pour que vous sachiez : il y avait des chauffeurs de taxi, des enseignants, des vendeurs, des appariteurs, des pharmaciens, des mères de famille dévouées à leurs enfants – et qui le restent. Tous ils sont sans ressources depuis trois ans, sans perspectives.

Parrainer un de ces sept enfants, cela pourrait se faire à raison d’un euro par jour, simplement. Comme un trait d’union.

Parti du cœur, sans plus. Dites-nous ce que vous en pensez.

Pour retrouver un autre niveau d’énergie, ensemble.

1) Le 11 septembre 2001, je me souviens exactement où j’étais quand un ami, de Sézanne, m’a appelé pour partager  l’incroyable nouvelle. Les Tours Jumelles, je connaissais, d’être monté à leur sommet en ascenseur rapide, avec d’autres, dont un petit garçon.

Le 11 septembre, hier comme maintenant, on peut le voir d’au moins deux façons :

idéologique (pro ou anti-américain), ou humain.

Le 12 septembre 2001 je donnais des cours du soir gratuits (municipaux) à des adultes, un public majoritairement musulman, en banlieue de la capitale. Ils exultaient. Pour eux, c’était un “juste retour des choses”. Cela m’a révulsé. Je leur ai demandé comment ils pouvaient, un seul instant, oublier que c’étaient des êtres humains ordinaires, comme eux et moi, qui avaient ce jour-là suffoqué à mort, brûlé vif, sauté par les fenêtres ?

Il va y avoir des élections parlementaires le 27 octobre. Que vont-elles changer ?

A massive crowd of Haredim, or ultra-Orthodox Jews, at a protest against attempts to draft their community.Les deux partis extrémistes sont représentés par treize députés à eux deux. L’opposition en compte soixante, la moitié exactement, d’où l’instabilité (due au système de pleine proportionnalité).

Sur les sept millions de citoyens juifs, un million et quart sont très religieux, et refusent tout service militaire, manifestent régulièrement, avec force, contre tout enrôlement dans l’armée.

On comprend dès lors qu’il ne s’agit pas d’un conflit « religieux » (entre juifs d’Occident et musulmans d’Orient), puisque les plus religieux des juifs israéliens ne veulent ni armée ni guerre.

Rodent Outbreak Hits Israeli Gaza Border Communities, Up to 100 Caught in Some Homes

5) Ce qui nous occupe, maintenant, c’est la survie en paix, puis la coexistence quotidienne des deux peuples, des trois religions, et des autres (bouddhistes, athées…).

Ce qui nous occupe, c’est le sort des réfugiés de Gaza, plus de deux millions, sans accès à l’eau courante, à une électricité régulière, dans les 365 km carrés qui ont été dévastés.

Dans notre dernière Lettre (Lettre 151, du 6 juillet 2026), nous vous informions que les habitants de Gaza assez chanceux pour avoir retrouvé des murs ne trouvaient que des rouleaux de plastique et des tasseaux pour leurs réparations. Les autres, plus d’un million, vivent sous des tentes, dans des camps « temporaires », les pieds dans le sable ou la boue. Bientôt, la saison des pluies revient, d’ici deux mois. Ils seront alors inondés.

Ici, nous ne nous bouchons pas les yeux. Nous ne distribuons pas de points.

Vous qui lisez ces lignes, la plupart vous n’êtes pas informés par les mass media. Vous ne savez donc rien. « La guerre à Gaza est finie depuis un an », croyez-vous.

Non. On compte plus de mille trois cents personnes tuées depuis le cessez-le-feu d’octobre 2025. Un bus de Médecins Sans Frontières, ce 13 septembre, a été frappé en « dommage collatéral » à Gaza, avec dix volontaires humanitaires à bord. L’un d’eux a été blessé.

Un bus de MSF transportant 10 travailleurs humanitaires endommagé par une frappe israélienne à Gaza-ville

Et il n’y a pas que Gaza. En Cisjordanie, plus de mille cent personnes ont été tuées depuis octobre 2023.

Au Liban, ce sont plus de quatre mille personnes qui ont été tuées de mars à fin juin 2026.

Gaza – Cisjordanie – Liban – Iran – Yémen (cent mille personnes ont fui leur foyer dernièrement)… Tout se tient, tout est lié. Les trois premiers sont les plus touchés.

6) Ce que nous vous proposons : parrainer, chacun, un enfant de Gaza. Par un virement régulier. Si modique soit-il, ce sera une ligne de vie pour son destinataire. Vous pouvez le faire par notre intermédiaire, ou bien directement – nous avons évoqué le sort de Yara, orpheline, de Moath et Wateen, nous pourrons vous en nommer d’autres, dont nous partagerons avec vous le parcours.

Non des mots, des discours, mais des actes, simples, vitaux.

A titre d’information : le kilo de sucre coûte trois euros. Le thé, pour une boîte de cent sachets, huit euros. La menthe, un euro pour dix tiges – ceux qui connaissent le rituel du thé a la menthe en orient en comprennent l’importance. Davantage encore, dans les ruines.

Le prix d’un kilo de pain : trois euros, comme le sucre.

Trente œufs (rares à trouver) : dix euros.

Un kilo de légumes, de fruits (tomates, oignons, carottes, bananes, pommes, citrons) : six euros.

Un kilowatt d’électricité (intermittente) : vingt-cinq euros.

Vous savez que les salariés du secteur public n’ont reçu aucun salaire depuis trois ans. Il n’y a pas de revenus à Gaza, en dehors des transactions alimentaires, et quelques petits stands.

« …in the end this is a Shiite culture of not surrendering no matter what, no matter how much they lose or what happens to their residents… » https://www.ynetnews.com/magazine/article/hjvzjlzfze

« Soldiers are discharged and new soldiers arrive, so the ranks are refreshed. »

We hear 36 lives of Israeli soldiers have been lost in Lebanon, as of June 20.

The toll for the Lebanese : over 4,000 killed, 12,000 wounded.

The US Vice-President’s warning, as of June 18 :

Accord avec l'Iran : Vance fustige la "réaction hystérique" de certains ministres israéliens - The Times of Israël« You’re a country of nine million people. You can’t just kill your way out of solving every single national security problem that you have. »

Death toll from Israeli fire in Gaza since ceasefire passes 1,000, says health ministry
Reuters, June 18, 2026

Since the October 2025 ceasefire, 265 Palestinian children have been killed across Gaza – one child, on average, every single day
UN News, June 21, 2026

This orgy of killing is not being performed by deranged criminals, but by law-abiding citizens, upon orders, and laisser faire.

Israel Is Conducting a Systematic Campaign of Ethnic Cleansing and Crimes Against Humanity in the West Bank
Ehud Olmert, Haaretz, June 18, 2026

Stop Israel’s Ethnic Cleansing in the West Bank
Amnesty International, June 2026

Stop beating about the bush. Take it back to the occupation process. Occupation is occupation is occupation. Occupation : Kibush in Hebrew.

« You may not like the word, but what is happening is an occupation, kibush ze kibush. — to hold 3.5 million Palestinians under occupation. I believe that is a terrible thing for Israel and for the Palestinians, » stated PM Ariel Sharon before the Disparition d'Ariel Sharon, l'homme qui rêvait d'un "Grand Israël" - France 24Knesset on May 26, 2003. « It cannot continue endlessly. Do you want to stay forever in Jenin, in Nablus, in Ramallah, in Bethlehem? I don’t think that’s right.”

Sharon: ‘Occupation’ terrible for Israel, Palestinians CNN, May 27, 2003


All the more as a Loving Dictionary of Palestine has also been published recently, by Elias Sanbar – a Palestinian historian and diplomat of the same generation.

Dictionnaire amoureux d'Israël - 1What is striking about Barnavi’s amazing book is that he has decided to make it a testimony about a human country that is no more. « So, what will you find there ? Characters [the dead only – for reasons that need no comment, I Elie Barnavi, ancien diplomate israélien, dit sa colère face à l'invasion en Ukraine - The Times of Israëlspared the living], places, doctrines, facts… which, together draw a portrait of the Jewish state.» How can you draw such a compelling portrait without today’s people ?

«SANBAR Elias - Etonnants Voyageurs The transitions can be risky if they don’t open the door to changes, if they don’t transform mindsets, do not provide us with small daily proof that the choice made was the good one. »

Let’s face it : it’s either self-destructive Nouveau Dictionnaire amoureux de la Palestine - 1violence, or self-constructive violence from now on.
We still have to deal with the human matrix of chaos, separatism, segregation and death.
