"We would sit, chage the world, what's with this?" "It seems here all's the same." "I remember something..." "They make changes all day long." "All day long?" "So many changes that everything remains the same." "To change the world..." "The world changes, what do you want?" "But what shall we do on a practical level?" "Practical level?" "In America we act first, do you get it?" "It makes a havoc." "Sir, first of all you go to demonstrate, bump with the police, you don't give up," "Till the last consequences, got it?" "So..." "Realy?" "So from the start they treat you differently, got it?" "In a different manner." "They have..." "Yea, but that's not what gets the people convinced." "I mean, movements have risen here, they made big demonstrations and claimed there's injustice, "the black panthers"." "Did someone join them?" ""The panthers" remained..." "They made more havoc than anyone else in this country." "Did someone become a panther because of that?" "They were noticed to such a degree?" "Did they solve their problems?" "No, they didn't." "A taxi driver near the theatre told me at the time" "Now we'll fuck the Arabs." "We won't return nothing, we don't have to and all that..." "The same driver says now when I go with him: "Enough, return all the land," ""Do you know how much money this war costs us?" "Do you know whata tight budget I have?"" ""I pay here income tax, security loan tax, another damn tax and the costs and all that..."" "Who convinced him?" "Life and reality convinced him, and he's changed." "But no one knows about you here." "Do you know that abroad they don't knows there's even one man here who's not in accordance with the government?" "First thing you need..." "It's their problem, not ours." "No." "There are people here who think differently and they're organized in a party." "So why no one hears about them?" "There's the communist party." "Why they're not being heard?" "Because they do nothing." "Make a revolution." "I don't believe the jew will take out his sofa to make a barricade..." "He'll say: "barricade?" "go ahead, but let him take out his sofa, why should I do it?"" "But war..." "And immediately you'd have a bussinesman who'll sell plastic sofas and all the revolution will tear to shreds." "So let's presume..." "That's not water." "That revolutions and all that..." "What's that?" "Yea, that's the real thing." "That's vodka." "Arak?" "Vodka."
