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.

I swear to God, I will see [the Palestinian state], whether as a martyr or alive. Please, God, give me the honor of becoming a martyr in the fight for Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
The Amman Agreement failed because there was American pressure, and Israeli pressure, on Jordan to deal alone.
