Violence Introduction

Mahatma Gandhi once said "I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the evil it does is permanent ." The quote states that violence is bad because the good in it isn't big enough to forget about the bad it did. What this quote is stating is true because you can see the damages war does to country. This can be clearly seen in the book A Stone in My Hand by Cathryn Clinton. Due to the violence going on in Palestine Malaak lost her father. In this novel violence is never the answer in anything, Malaak is deeply impacted by the death of her father, and its dangerous to even play in the streets without the fear of a soldier pointing a gun at you.
