I |
|
There
was no such thing as Palestinians (...). It was not as though there was a
Palestinian people in Palestine considering itself as a people and we came
and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not
exist Quoted in The Sunday Times (Londres), June 15, 1969. |

II |
|
We
must ask ourselves: 'What sort of Israel do we want?' I say: A Jewish
Israel, with no question marks or doubts. A Jewish Israel, without the
daily fear whether the minority now constitutes fifty percent or not.

In case of riots and necessity to defend the life and the property, youth Jews will defend the life and the property of the Jews. I, like other Jews, I would defend myself. Quoted from Golda Meir, by Karen McAuley, p. 16. (Translated from Portuguese edition). |

|
We will never pardon the Arabs to have forced our soldiers to kill them. Quoted by Azmi Bishara, Exterminando a los extras. |
|
V |
|
We can forgive the Arabs for kill our children, but we can't forgive them for force us to kill theirs. Quoted by Ezequiel Finkelberg, El ultimo adios a Oslo. |

|
I think sincerely that they are not men. Not even I consider them human beings, and the worse thing that we can say about a man is that he is not a human being. About Palestinian warriors. Quoted by Carlos Ramírez, Guerra Infinita. |

VII |
|
Impossible. During 20 years they have been fed with hatred against us; already they cannot come back to our middle. Its children had not been born here, had been born in the encampments and everything what they know is that they have to kill Israelis: to destroy Israel.
Answering
about a possible return of the Palestinians refugees. Quoted by Carlos
Ramírez,

Infinita. |
