Awareness and the Right Time to Fight

I once read that a person who knows how to fight will win many battles. But a person who knows when to fight will always win. If we set fire to our store of anger at the wrong time, we merely waste its energy. That is exactly what the Islamic Republic wants. By drawing that energy into conditions of its own making, using its exported voices and infiltrators, it steers our anger into the desert, where it burns itself out. Awareness, my dear Raha. Awareness is the one thing they cannot take back. It is our most important weapon against oppression. So when the time is right, we will finish the work.
