"I am a Palestinian. Hath not a Palestinian eyes? Hath not a Palestinian hands,
organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions; fed with the same
food, hurt with the same weapons, subject to the same diseases,
heal'd by the same means, warm'd and cool'd by the same winter
and summer, as a Jew is? If you prick us, do we not bleed? If
you tickle us, do we not laugh? If you poison us, do we not die?
And if you wrong us, do we not revenge? If we are like you in the
rest, we will resemble you in that."
Can you name the source for this modified quote?
This is a parody of Shylock's speech from "The Merchant of Venice" (Shakespeare)
