About this Quote

Mordechai Vanunu's quote speaks to the power of speaking up against oppression. He was abducted and held versus his will, and he can speak out about the criminal offense done versus him. Nevertheless, those accountable for his kidnapping did not want him to reveal the fact, so he decided to take matters into his own hands and expose it to the general public. This quote shows that even when confronted with tremendous opposition, one can still defend what is right and speak out against oppression. It likewise speaks to the power of the public in causing modification and justice. By speaking out, Vanunu had the ability to bring attention to the crime done against him and eventually bring about justice. His quote is an effective tip of the value of speaking up versus injustice and the power of the public in producing modification.
