I don't act; I react.
We will fight from house to house, from village to village. We will fight than live humiliated. We are building our country, our history, our future.
There is no longer a way out of our present situation except by forging a road toward our objective, violently and by force, over a sea of blood and under a horizon blazing with fire.
Our basic objective will be the destruction of Israel. The Arab people want to fight.
We will not accept any...coexistence with Israel...Today the issue is not the establishment of peace between the Arab states and Israel....The war with Israel is in effect since 1948.
He who can not support himself, can not take his own decision
Everyone have power of brain but people don't know correctly time of usage. winner just know when, where & how to usage it.
People do not want words - they want the sound of battle - the battle of destiny.
The genius of you Americans is that you never make clear-cut stupid moves, only complicated stupid moves which make the rest of us wonder at the possibility that we might be missing something.
Fate does not jest and events are not a matter of chance. There is no existence out of nothing.
Power is not merely shouting aloud. Power is to act positively with all the components of power.
What was taken by force, can only be restored by force.
They defended the grains of sand in the desert to the last drop of their blood.
Our path to Palestine will not be covered with a red carpet or with yellow sand. Our path to Palestine will be covered with blood... In order that we may liberate Palestine, the Arab nation must unite, the Arab armies must unite, and a unified plan of action must be established
The armies of Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon are poised on the borders of Israel ... to face the challenge, while standing behind us are the armies of Iraq, Algeria, Kuwait, Sudan and the whole Arab nation. This act will astound the world. Today they will know that the Arabs are arranged for battle, the critical hour has arrived. We have reached the stage of serious action and not of more declarations.
Within the Arab circle there is a role wandering aimlessly in search of a hero. For some reason it seems to me that this role is beckoning to us-to move, to take up its lines, put on its costumes and give it life. Indeed, we are the only ones who can play it. The role is to spark the tremendous latent strengths in the region surrounding us to create a great power, which will then rise up to a level of dignity and undertake a positive part in building the future of mankind.
The age of isolation is gone. And gone are the days in which barbed wire served as demarcation lines, separating and isolating countries from one another. No country can escape looking beyond its boundaries to find the source of the currents which influence how it can live with others.
I believe that we now have a duty to remove the aggressor from our land and to regain the Arab territory occupied by the Israelis. We can then engage in a clandestine struggle to liberate the land of Palestine, to liberate Haifa and Jaffa.
If the refugees return to Israel, Israel will cease to exist.
Fate does not play jokes.
We shall not enter Palestine with its soil covered in sand, we shall enter it with its soil saturated in blood
We are awaiting aggression by Israel and any supporters of Israel. We will make it a decisive battle and get rid of Israel once and for all... This is the dream of every Arab.
We must fight our way to victory on a sea of blood and a horizon of fire.
We have to go along a road covered with blood. We have no other alternative. For us it is a matter of life or death, a matter of living or existing. We have to be ready to face the challenges that await us.
We're a sentimental people. We like a few kind words better than millions of dollars given in a humiliating way.
I have been a conspirator for so long that I mistrust all around me.
Events are not a matter of chance.
He who can not support himself, can not take his own decision.
