The man of the Cross, who heads the church whose symbol is the Cross, under which Jews were killed for generations. I could not escape the feeling. It stuck with me. And he felt it-that a Jewess was sitting opposite him.

We have always said that in our war with the Arabs we had a secret weapon - no alternative.

Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.

We Jews have a secret weapon in our struggle with the Arabs; we have no place to go.

Those that perished in Hitler's gas chambers were the last Jews to die without standing up to defend themselves.
humorous israel pessimism
Zionism and pessimism are not compatible.
humorous israel choices
If we have to have a choice between being dead and pitied, and being alive with a bad image, we'd rather be alive and have the bad image.
cities jerusalem half
Arab sovereignty in Jerusalem just cannot be. This city will not be divided-not half and half, not 60-40, not 75-25, nothing.
