I condemn hypocrisy in all its forms

What could be going through Palestinian photojournalist Motaz Azaiza's mind right now?


The below quote from the movie "The Batman", which I posted on my blog on Wednesday, seems a reflection of what could be (emphasis on "could be") going on in his mind, considering the 24-year-old's harrowing history in Gaza, in addition to the death of 15 members of his family and some of his friends, and when he evacuated to Qatar on Tuesday:

"I'm starting to see now. I have had an effect here but not the one I intended. Vengeance won't change the past, mine or anyone else's. I have to become more. People need hope. To know someone's out there for them. The city's angry, scarred, like me. Our scars can destroy us. Even after the physical wounds have healed. But if we survive them, they can transform us. They can give us the power to endure and the strength to fight."

-- "The Batman" (2022)
