Yasser Arafat
Did you follow what [General Yehoshafat] Harkabi wrote? Formerly of the Israeli military intelligence service. Remember him? Did you follow what he wrote?

Yasser Arafat
The war of attrition against the Zionist enemy will never cease.
Yasser Arafat

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
