Ariel Sharon quote

[Subversive Pessimist]

"I don't know something called International Principles. I vow that
I'll burn every Palestinian child (that) will be born in this area.
The Palestinian woman and child is more dangerous than the man,
because the Palestinian childs existence infers that generations
will go on, but the man causes limited danger. I vow that if I was
just an Israeli civilian and I met a Palestinian I would burn him
and I would make him suffer before killing him. With one hit I've
killed 750 Palestinians (in Rafah in 1956). I wanted to encourage my
soldiers by raping Arabic girls as the Palestinian women is a slave
for Jews, and we do whatever we want to her and nobody tells us what
we shall do but we tell others what they shall do."

- Ariel Sharon, current Prime Minister, In an interview with General
Ouze Merham, 1956

Sharon is threat to freedom, hes a blockade. I dont support the HAMAS, but I truely understand them. I would freak-out too.

I would put a lot of money that that quote is complete bullshit.

Sharon isn't a genius, but he's smarter than that. Even in 1956, no soldier was dumb enough to go around publically advocating rape. The underlying anger in that quote along with the shoddy attempt at some sort of pseudo-zionism (" the Palestinian women is a slave for Jews") is quite plain. No Israeli soldier would have given an interview like that. Not in 1956 not in 1948. Plus there's this... (http://www.geocities.com/myjoy18/arielsharon1956lie.htm)

Sorry I don't by it.

If this were an authentic quote if would have been mentioned a long time ago. With the amount of anti-Israeli sentiment around the world you'd think that the Jordanian Times would have run a story on this the second after it was released. It's sort of telling that it only appears on private websites. The google link you provided contains no news sites, no schollarly sites, and a good third of the sites it does contain are actually debunking the quote!

Ariel Sharon is a son of a *****....but that quote is crap.

[il Commie]

Well, Sharon was a big asshole back then. But I don't think he went that far, or at least he wasn't stupid enough to admit it.
