“But no state is entitled to use justice for Iranians as a pretext for advancing its own ambitions for domination…”
– Amir Khadir

“When representatives of these governments assemble under the false presumption of alleviating conditions which they themselves created through their laws, we can say that this is the peak of brazen and heartless boldness.”

“The point here is that as the overriding aim was to preserve the Empire, peace with a Greater Germany — a fascist empire — was a conceivable option for British policy-makers, if only the Empire could be safeguarded.”

“Deportation as such, whether to a fascist-ruled country or not, is unjust, willful, and an insult to every one who holds ideas of Justice and Freedom as above those of ruthless exploitation and rulership.”

“So much for Freedom under Democracy… So much for the real aims of the Allies.”

“I am overwhelmed with a view of the injustice of my country to the suffering Indians!”

“What is called human government is usurpation, imposture, demagogueism, peculation, swindling and tyranny, more or less, according to circumstances, and to the intellectual and moral condition of the people.”

“…many see in ‘foreigners’ the cause of economic distress… This is evidently a stupid error…”

“The tribes have faced tremendous odds in this ceaseless battle. In addition to the machinery of state government, the news media had been attempting to write the Indians’ obituary daily.”

“We are not allowed to make those basic human choices and decisions about our personal life and about the destiny of our communities which is the mark of free mature people.”
