I Believe That It Is My Responsibility

I, Serial Number 30743, Lieutenant General In Reserves Yitzhak Rabin, A Soldier In The Israeli Defense Forces And In The Army Of Peace, I, Who Have Sent Armies Into Fire And Soldiers To Their Death, Say Today: We Sail Onto A War Which Has No Casualties, No Wounded, No Blood Nor Suffering. It Is The Only War Which Is A Pleasure To Participate In - The War For Peace.

There Is No Way Of Finding The Middle Ground, Even With The Best Intentions Of The World. Our Most Sensible Policy Is To Stall.

We, The Soldiers Who Have Returned From Battle Stained With Blood, We Who Have Seen Our Relatives And Friends Killed Before Our Eyes, We Who Have Attended Their Funerals And Cannot Look Into The Eyes Of Their Parents, We Who Have Come From A Land Where Parents Bury Their Children, We Who Have Fought Against You, The Palestinians We Say To You Today In A Loud And Clear Voice: Enough Of Blood And Tears. Enough.

Syria Doesn't Want To Talk With Us On A Bilateral Basis, Only Under The Auspices Of The United States.

Peace With Syria Would Provide More Security Than A Few Settlements On The Golan.
