  - Are these our Jews? Mom...

  - These are our people

  - We are Moroccans.

  - We're not Moroccans, we're European, it is them, the Forasteros, they are the Moroccans, we are... when did we ever hear Arabic music, I always hated that music

  - But they made us Moroccans here

  - Don’t you never ever say that

  - But whenever there's a scholarship they don't let me have it because my name is Benzimra and not Zimranovich

  - So what? Does this make us Moroccans? Does this make us like the Moroccans of Casablanca, those Moroccans were just like Arabs, it was only in 1958 when I went to Casablanca when I first saw them, I never seen this type of Moroccans in my life,

  - So look how low did they bring us down to in your country, in the country you said was ours, there we were Jews, here we are Moroccans

  - So go then, go to Paris or Madrid, go then, I'm not taking the blame

  - To think that you, the great Zionist say that...
