...But of these sophisms and elenchs of merchandise I skill not...
Milton, Areopagitica

Except he had found the
standing sea-rock that even this last
Temptation breaks on; quieter than death but lovelier; peace
that quiets the desire even of praising it.

Jeffers, Meditation On Saviors

 Born in what is now the Israeli city of Ashkelon, Yassin grew up in Palestinian refugee camps in the Gaza Strip after his family, like those of hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, was uprooted in 1948 with the founding of Israel. Yassin, a teacher and spiritual leader, founded Hamas in December 1987 with the eruption of the first Palestinian uprising. When the organization was formally outlawed by Israeli military authorities in 1989, Yassin and nearly 200 other group members were arrested and Yassin was sentenced to life in prison. The Hamas spiritual leader was later released by Israel in 1997 as a goodwill gesture to Jordan's King Hussein after a failed Israeli attempt to assassinate another Hamas leader Khaled Mashal in Amman.
