left to Israelis."

with milk and honey become a land flowing with blood and tears…Peace has no
borders."

“Peace is not just a prayer. It is
at first a prayer, but it is also the realistic aspiration of the Jewish
people.”
Prime Minister
Yitzhak Rabin, November 4, 1995
In Tel-Aviv in May 1948—Jerusalem
was then under siege and isolated—as I pondered the dangers of independence,
declaration, and the odds against us, I recalled the men and women of London
during the blitz. And I said to myself: “I have seen what people are capable of
achieving in the hour of supreme trial. I have seen their spirit touched by
nobility. This is what man can do. This is what the Jewish people can do.”
Prime Minister
David Ben-Gurion, 1965
