These are improvisations: neither a manifesto nor a treatise because life is too complicated for either. Yet, I'm improvising as an Arab--Palestinian-- woman with a progressive point of view always under construction. I use these improvisations to think out loud, so never take any post as my last word on a subject but think of it as the beginning of a conversation.

"An Israeli army officer who fired the entire magazine of his automatic rifle into a 13-year-old Palestinian girl and then said he would have done the same even if she had been three years old was acquitted on all charges by a military court yesterday," The Guardian reports.

The event is murderous and tragic. The response is unfathomable and unjust. But no adjectives seem truly adequate.

Agreed, Alan.
