You are clearly a very clever chappie to be able to track down quotes from four, five, and six decades, hell even one century ago!!

Yeah right Viva, Sharon’s quotes were from 1998. You call that past generations? Nice try though.

We wonder if your forensic skills extend to tracking down an equally representative selection of Islamist quotes?

No doutb they exist. The point is that Captain abnd others do list these statememts to paint Islamic leaders are being dangeorus to Israel and the West in general. That statements liek these are as proof of intent to kill.

Captain insists that Irsrael onyl wants peace, when their actions speak entirely the opposite. I have always maitained that actions speak louder than words.

You are clearly a very clever chappie to be able to track down quotes from four, five, and six decades, hell even one century ago!! But why don’t you live in the NOW!? Or at least in the past generation.

Let us not ignore the truth among ourselves … politically we are the aggressors and they defend themselves… The country is theirs, because they inhabit it, whereas we want to come here and settle down, and in their view we want to take away from them their country.

– David Ben Gurion, quoted on pp 91-2 of Chomsky’s Fateful Triangle, which appears in Simha Flapan’s “Zionism and the Palestinians pp 141-2 citing a 1938 speech.

There has been Anti-Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?

– Quoted by Nahum Goldmann in Le Paraddoxe Juif (The Jewish Paradox), pp. 121-122.

We walked outside, Ben-Gurion accompanying us. Allon repeated his question, What is to be done with the Palestinian population?’ Ben-Gurion waved his hand in a gesture which said ‘Drive them out!

– Ariel Sharon, Israeli Foreign Minister, addressing a meeting of militants from the extreme right-wing Tsomet Party, Agence France Presse, November 15, 1998.

Everybody has to move, run and grab as many (Palestinian) hilltops as they can to enlarge the (Jewish) settlements because everything we take now will stay ours…Everything we don’t grab will go to them.

Israel may have the right to put others on trial, but certainly no one has the right to put the Jewish people and the State of Israel on trial.

Ben Guiron wanted to make peace with the the Arabs the same way Hitleer wanted to make peace with Jews.

What makes you such a source of ridicule Captain is that you cannot for one second aknowledge the shortcomming of Israel and it’s extremist leaders. Everythng that happens some else’s fault. Just like a child who refuses to grow up.

Ben Gurion wanted to live in peace with arabs.
