First, look at a map. Israel is so small you can hardly find it. It is
surrounded by 23 Arab nations with land hundreds of thousands of times
that of tiny Israel. And yet Israel is willing to relinquish land --
"for peace."  Meanwhile, the Arabs give up nothing and after each gain,
cry out for more.

If you research what their leaders say to their own people you can't
help but see that peace is not now, or ever has been,  their goal.

"This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will
be spoken of like the
 Mongolian massacres and the Crusades."
     --Arab League Secretary General Azzam Pasha, May 15, 1948, the day
five Arab armies invaded the new state of Israel, one day after the
nation declared its
independence.

"The Arab nations should sacrifice up to 10 million of their 50 million
people, if necessary, to wipe
 out Israel ... Israel to the Arab world is like a cancer to the human
body, and the only way of remedy
 is to uproot it, just like a cancer."
     --Saud ibn Abdul Aziz, King of Saudi Arabia, Associated Press, Jan.
9, 1954

"I announce from here, on behalf of the United Arab Republic people,
that this time we will
exterminate Israel."
     --President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt, speech in Alexandria, July
26, 1959

"We shall never call for nor accept peace. We shall only accept war. We
have resolved to drench this
land with your (Israel's) blood, to oust you as aggressor, to throw you
into the sea."
     --Hafez Assad, then-Syrian Defense Minister, May 24, 1966, who
later became Syria's president.

"Our basic objective will be the destruction of Israel."
     --President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt, May 27, 1967, nine days
before the start of the Six-Day War.

"The existence of Israel is an error which must be rectified. This is
our opportunity to wipe out the ignominy which has been with us since
1948. Our goal is clear -- to wipe Israel off the map."
     --President Abdel Rahman Aref of Iraq, May 31, 1967

"All countries should wage war against the Zionists, who are there to

     --King Faisal of Saudi Arabia, in a speech in Uganda, Beirut Daily
Star, Nov. 17, 1972

"The battle with Israel must be such that, after it, Israel will cease
to exist."

     --Jordan's King Hussein, Radio Amman, Dec. 1, 1973

"Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity is there only for
tactical reasons. The establishment of a Palestinian state is a new
expedient to continue the fight against Zionism and for Arab unity."
     --Zoheir Muhsin, head of the PLO Military Operations Department and

member of the PLO Executive Council, 1977

"I have never met an Arab leader that in private professed a desire for
an independent Palestinian state. Publicly, they all espouse an
independent Palestinian state -- almost all of them -- because that is
what they committed themselves to do at  Rabat (the 1974 Arab League
summit conference)."
     --President Jimmy Carter, at a 1979 press conference

"There has been no change whatsoever in the fundamental strategy of the
PLO, which is based on the total liberation of Palestine and the
destruction of the occupying country. ... On no accounts will the
Palestinians accept part of Palestine and call it the Palestinian state,
while forfeiting the remaining areas which are called the State of
Israel."
     --Rafiq Najshah, PLO representative in Saudi Arabia, Saudi Arabian
News Agency, June 9, 1980

"The struggle with the Zionist enemy is not a struggle about Israel's
borders, but about Israel's existence. We will never agree to anything
less than the return of all our land and the establishment of the
independent state."
     --Bassam Abu Sharif, a top Arafat aide and PLO spokesman, quoted by
the Kuwait News Agency, May 31, 1986

"There are two different approaches in the Arab world: that Israel can
be overwhelmed militarily, or that a military victory is impossible. The
power struggle between Israel and the Arabs is a long-term historical
trial. Victory or defeat are for us questions of existence or
annihilation, the outcome of an irreconcilable hatred."
     --Al-Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, July 11, 1986

"The establishment of an independent Palestinian state on the West Bank
and the Gaza Strip does not contradict our ultimate strategic aim, which
is the establishment of a democratic state in the entire territory of
Palestine, but rather is a step in that direction."
     --Salah Khalaf (Abu Iyad) interview with Al-Safir, Lebanon, Jan.
25, 1988

"This is the ideology of the PLO and of Yasser Arafat: To destroy the
state of Israel and to establish a Palestinian state instead. They will
accept the territories -- but only as a beginning, as a base for further
attacks to conquer all of Israel. Why give them this opportunity to
strengthen their efforts to attack us?"
     --Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir, U.S. News & World Report,
March 21, 1988

"The armed struggle must continue, everywhere, against the Zionist enemy
and his allies. ... We have no alternative but to carry out armed
activity in order to vanquish the enemy and establish our state."
     --Salim Zaanoun, Deputy PNC speaker and member of the Fatah Central
Committee, in Al-Anba, Kuwait, Dec. 23, 1988

"The PLO will not stop the armed struggle."
     --Yasser Arafat, June 6, 1989 at a press conference in Kuwait,
Associated Press.

"The Middle East peace efforts have reached a stalemate. ... The PLO now
has no alternative but to escalate armed struggle outside the occupied
territories in support of the uprising."

Press

at the start of the Gulf War

"In the name of Allah, we shall cause fire to devour half of Israel.
..."
     --Iraqi News Agency, April 2, 1990

God's blessing."
