More quotes by Yasser Arafat
I send my condolences, and the condolences of the Palestinian people to American President Bush and his government and to the American people for this terrible act....We completely condemn this serious operation.... We were completely shocked.... It's unbelievable, unbelievable, unbelievable.
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
It's always convenient for certain people to heap accusations on Israel.
Yasser Arafat

I want to tell Carter and Begin that when the Arabs set off their volcano there will be only Arabs in this part of the world... Our people will continue to fuel the torch of the revolution with rivers of blood until the whole of the occupied homeland is liberated, the whole of the homeland is liberated, not just a part of it.
Yasser Arafat

I can't let it pass when you say: You are the weak party. No, I am not the weak party. I am the man who is making the war. I am the man who is making the peace.
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
In order to obtain the goal of returning to Palestine, all of us sometimes have to grit our teeth.
Yasser Arafat
[Adolf] Hitler succeeded once upon a time to conquer all the big powers within two or three years and occupied all Europe, North Africa, and arrived at the gates of Moscow. This is not the real power. Real power is something completely different.
Yasser Arafat
It is another face in the new atmosphere of many leaders inside Israel. No doubt it is something new. Actually, Ezer Weizman is a Palestinian. He was born in Haifa.
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
All religious wars are about people arguing over who has the biggest invisible friend.
Yasser Arafat
Martyrs, martyrs, martyrs,... we want a million martyrs to march on Jerusalem.
Yasser Arafat
What Kuwait did to the Palestinian people is worse than what has been done by Israel to Palestinians in the occupied territories.

The Palestinian people have no national identity. I, Yasser Arafat, man of destiny, will give them that identity through conflict with Israel.
