More quotes by Yasser Arafat
Do not let the olive branch fall from my hand.
Yasser Arafat
I am convinced that our people are now on the way to establishing a Palestinian state. The agreement signed in Cairo is the first step in establishing the state, and therefore it should be implemented.
Yasser Arafat
I am looking to have a place under the sun for our new generations to live in peace far away from repression, from terrorism, to live as human beings freely in this free world. That is what I am looking for. I am not asking for the moon. I am asking for the United Nations legality to be implemented.
Yasser Arafat
Since we cannot defeat Israel in war, we do this in stages. We take any and every territory that we can of Palestine, and establish a sovereignty there, and we use it as a springboard to take more. When the time comes, we can get the Arab nations to join us for the final blow against Israel.
Yasser Arafat
I am challenging Ezer Weizman to accept the democratic state where both of us can live in this democratic state. What confederation? No. One democratic state. He declared one offer, I am declaring the other offer. With two communities.
Yasser Arafat
I'm a man of history. My vision is guiding me, my clear vision. It is not by chance that the currents of peace are increasing daily inside Israel.
Yasser Arafat
Choose your friends carefully. Your enemies will choose you.
Yasser Arafat
Whoever stands by a just cause cannot possibly be called a terrorist.
Yasser Arafat
The Israelis are mistaken if they think we do not have an alternative to negotiations. By Allah I swear they are wrong. The Palestinian people are prepared to sacrifice the last boy and the last girl so that the Palestinian flag will be flown over the walls, the churches and the mosques of Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
We are not the Red Indians.
Yasser Arafat
I know the American administration is trying to refurbish its image after Irangate, especially in the Middle East and among their friends in this area. No doubt about it. We are following it.
Yasser Arafat
If there is any Arab problem we can solve it inside the Arab League. But we are going to deal with the other side, with the Israelis.... It is not me who will decide who will invite, to speak frankly. It is not me, it is not the Arab side, it is not the Israelis who will decide who will invite.
Yasser Arafat
Let us be worthy of those who pin their hopes on us. May God bless you with success.
Yasser Arafat
Anyone who relinquishes a single inch of Jerusalem is neither an Arab nor a Muslim.
Yasser Arafat
It will be another disaster, after Irangate. Not only that, not only this longest Arab - Israeli confrontation: but also the most important and successful war of attrition which still continues in the south of Lebanon.
Yasser Arafat
This child, who is grasping the stone, facing the tank, is it not the greatest message to the world when that hero becomes a martyr? We are proud of them.
Yasser Arafat
Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations...
Yasser Arafat
Israel must withdraw from Jerusalem so that it becomes the capital of a state of Palestine.
Yasser Arafat
What Kuwait did to the Palestinian people is worse than what has been done by Israel to Palestinians in the occupied territories.
Yasser Arafat
Still, the American administration is following blindly the Israeli advisers in your policy, while they are pushing you to more and more disasters.
Yasser Arafat
