“But in the case of Israel the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab.”

Eric Hoffer (1898–1983) American philosopher

Israel's Peculiar Position (1968)
Context: The Jews are a peculiar people: things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews. Other nations drive out thousands, even millions of people and there is no refugee problem. Russia did it, Poland and Czechoslovakia did it, Turkey threw out a million Greeks, and Algeria a million Frenchman. Indonesia threw out heaven knows how many Chinese — and no one says a word about refugees.
But in the case of Israel the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab.
Arnold J. Toynbee calls the displacement of the Arabs an atrocity greater than any committed by the Nazis. Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious it must sue for peace.

“I am familiar with what goes on in the Arab countries, and I'm sad to say that most of us want to annihilate Israel. We want to kill all the Israelis… Do you know what they used to say in the mosques in Egypt? "We want to go to the White House and turn it into the Islamic House…" We call upon the Arab countries to stop teaching hatred to the Arab children.”

Nonie Darwish (1949) American activist

“You who build these altars now
to sacrifice these children,
you must not do it anymore.”

Leonard Cohen (1934–2016) Canadian poet and singer-songwriter

"Story of Isaac"
Songs from a Room (1969)
Context: You who build these altars now
to sacrifice these children,
you must not do it anymore.
A scheme is not a vision
and you never have been tempted
by a demon or a god.

“The question is as follows: if the Arabs settle among us and make enough children to become a majority, will Israel continue to be a Jewish state? Do we have to accept that the Arab majority will decide? Obviously, nobody in Israel can accept this. Because to accept this would amount to being anti-Zionist!”

“My dream is to see a Middle East region where everyone has access to the unique and rich tradition of learning that has such a strong place in our Arabic and Islamic heritage.”
