If I Had To Resign Every Time

We Came Here To A Country That Was Populated By Arabs And We Are Building Here A Hebrew, A Jewish State; Instead Of The Arab Villages, Jewish Villages Were Established. You Even Do Not Know The Names Of Those Villages, And I Do Not Blame You Because These Villages No Longer Exist. There Is Not A Single Jewish Settlement That Was Not Established In The Place Of A Former Arab Village.

Before (the Palestinians) Very Eyes We Are Possessing The Land And The Villages Where They And Their Ancestors Have Lived We Are The Generation Of Colonizers And Without The Steel Helmet And The Gun Barrel We Cannot Plant A Tree And Build A House.

During The Last 100 Years Our People Have Been In A Process Of Building Up The Country And The Nation, Of Expansion, Of Getting Additional Jews And Additional Settlements In Order To Expand The Borders Here. Let No Jew Say That The Process Has Ended. Let No Jew Say That We Are Near The End Of The Road.

The Proposed Policy [of Raising The Level Of Public Service In The Occupied Territories] May Clash With Our Intention To Encourage Emigration From Both [gaza] Strip And Judea And Samaria. Anyone Who Has Practical Ideas Or Proposal To Encourage Emigration-let Him Speak Up. No Idea Or Proposal Is To Be Dismissed Out Of Hand.

I Know That Plans And Reality May Be Two Different Things, But I Think My Demands On Life Are Minimal.
