We do not want to destroy any people. It is precisely because we have been advocating coexistence that we have shed so much blood.
Yasser Arafat
Image
We have absolute support from all our masses inside our occupied territories and even outside our occupied territories. The War of the Camps [in Lebanon] is another picture of this strong support of our masses.

We said we are ready to establish our independent state in any part from which the Israelis withdraw or which is liberated. Any part. The moment they withdraw from Gaza, I will establish my state there in Gaza.

When American administration will find that their interest is to follow up with the international conference and to find peace in this area, they will search not only for me, but for any Palestinian to speak with him. And they will say, We have five million Arabs in the United States. We can't avoid them.

Our basic aim is to liberate the land from the Mediterranean Seas to the Jordan River. We are not concerned with what took place in June 1967 or in eliminating the consequences of the June war. The Palestinian revolution's basic concern is the uprooting of the Zionist entity from our land and liberating it.

Once in 1979, [Zbigniew] Brzezinski gave an important slogan: Bye-bye PLO. After two months, I was in Tehran saying to him: Bye-bye Brzezinski. Who can imagine that America will lose one of its strongest bases?
