“We have respect for our audience. … We operate on the conviction that it is composed of young children of potentially good taste, and that this taste should be developed.”

“We have to work sincerely and responsibly to thwart any attempt to divide the Arab nation into small groups, with which foreign countries would deal separately. This would eventually be in the interests of Zionism, which stands behind such policies, formulating the relevant theories and promoting distorted information to world politicians, especially in the West, in order to make them adopt an approach which is harmful to the Arab nation and is even against the legitimate interests of their own countries.”

Saddam Hussein (1937–2006) Iraqi politician and President

President Saddam Hussein's Speech on National Day (1981)

“Why should we be bothered if there are Arab countries or Indonesia [who] criticise the Malaysian courts on the Allah issue. Don’t think that every Arab knows or understand Islam [or] That there is no one ignorant there […]”

Ibrahim Ali (1957) Member of the Dewan Rakyat (parliament)

“With Yeltsin, the Soviet Union broke apart, the country was totally mismanaged, the constitution was not respected by the regions of Russia. The army, education and health systems collapsed. People in the West quietly applauded, dancing with and around Yeltsin. I conclude therefore that we should not pay too much attention to what the West is saying.”

Mikhail Gorbachev (1931) General Secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union

“I think there is a potential civic culture in Arab countries that can lead to democratic institutions and I think Iraq is probably the best place to put that proposition to the test”

Richard Perle (1941) American government official

“We have our own laws, rules and culture. That is why we don’t need to entertain and care about what those on the outside say, what else if coming from Arab countries which are in chaos themselves”

“We know the country, its potential, its resources, where it was and where it could have been. We should be at the level of a Taiwan or a South Korea today, not ranked 150th in the world, even though we are an oil-producing country… We should not have our Iranian rap artists say the regime is promising us yellow cake when we don't even have bread to eat.”

Reza Pahlavi (1960) Last crown prince of the former Imperial State of Iran

“We came to this country which was already populated by Arabs, and we are establishing a Hebrew, that is a Jewish state here. In considerable areas of the country we bought lands from the Arabs. Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you, because these geography books no longer exist; not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahalal arose in the place of Mahalul, Gevat — in the place of Jibta, Sarid — in the place of Haneifs and Kefar Yehoshua — in the place of Tell Shaman. There is no one place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population.”

Moshe Dayan (1915–1981) Israeli military leader and politician

“We want Palauans to come back and stay in their own home. We will lose our country (if Palauans keep migrating out of the country). It will affect and change everything in Palau. No more Palauans means there is no culture in Palau. This country will be taken over. Before it is too late, they (government) must make some change.”

Sandra Pierantozzi (1953) Palauan politician

“We have entered a world of great migrations and we will have more and more of it. Because the planet is in deep imbalance, we will have in the coming decades migrations due to geopolitical conflicts that will continue to play out, and we will have climate migrations... France will not be able to stem it... migratory phenomena much stronger than what we experienced with Syria."”

Emmanuel Macron (1977) 25th President of the French Republic

Original: (fr) Nous sommes entrés dans un monde de grandes migrations. Et on en aura de plus en plus. Parce que la planète est en profond déséquilibre, nous auront dans les décennies qui viennent des migrations dues à des conflits géopolitiques qui vont continuer à se jouer et nous aurons des migrations climatiques... La France ne pourra pas l'endiguer... des phénomènes migratoires beaucoup plus forts que ce qu'on a vécu avec la Syrie.
