Hentoff in the april 26 voice:
In a remarkable declaration in the February issue of The Progressive magazine, Hanan Ashwari—long the most ubiquitous advocate of full-scale Palestinian independence and a fierce critic of Israeli actions—writes of the current intifada:

"Why and when did we [Palestinians] allow a few from our midst to interpret Israeli military attacks on innocent Palestinian lives as license to do the same to their civilians? . . . When and why did our elected [Palestinian] legislative council become a political instrument for the few, or a self-negating powerless body for the many?" The article is titled "Where We Went Wrong." But Ashwari hasn't repeated any of this since.

But i cant find the original article...
