More quotes by 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
Anyone who relinquishes a single inch of Jerusalem is neither an Arab nor a Muslim.
Yasser Arafat
It is true that we are under occupation, but we are not the weaker party. We are the military force which Israel failed to defeat.
Yasser Arafat
Palestine is the cement that holds the Arab world together, or it is the explosive that blows it apart.
Yasser Arafat
I come bearing an olive branch in one hand, and the freedom fighter's gun in the other. Do not let the olive branch fall from my hand.
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
The war of attrition against the Zionist enemy will never cease.
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
Let us return back to the peace process for our children and for their children. The peace of the brave which I have signed is my debt, part in our love for [Isaac] Rabin.
Yasser Arafat
Palestine is only a stones throw away for a small Palestinian boy or girl.
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
Israel must withdraw from Jerusalem so that it becomes the capital of a state of Palestine.
Yasser Arafat
The most fatal mistake of this Israeli military junta is that they have the complex of the arrogance of power. This is their suicidal mistake.
Yasser Arafat
Whoever stands by a just cause cannot possibly be called a terrorist.
Yasser Arafat
Who imagined that what I said upon my departure from Beirut would become a reality, when I said the volcano and typhoon which started in Beirut will not stop.
Yasser Arafat
This is my homeland no one can kick me out.
Yasser Arafat
Martyrs, martyrs, martyrs,... we want a million martyrs to march on Jerusalem.
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
I have a solution. I agree for the United Nations forces to be on the borders between me and them for any period of time. Okay? Ezer Weizman challenged me a few days ago to accept an Israeli - Palestinian confederation.
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.
