Author: A. B. YehoshuaThe most troublesome and convoluted piece of the composing procedure is the start.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaWe generally realized how to respect fallen troopers. They were murdered for the good of us; they went out on our central goal. Be that as it may, how are we to grieve an arbitrary man executed in a fear-based oppressor assault while sitting in a bistro?

Author: A. B. YehoshuaIsrael is excessively joined to America, also affected by America. It ought to be associated with Europe.

You shape your personality through history.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaI consider the Arabs not as foes but as cousins. In any event, when we are in a savage clash with them, they are, to a greater extent, a sort of family – with all the issues of a family. We need to live with them.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaFor a long time – that is, for the vast majority of my grown-up life – I worked resolutely for the two-state arrangement notwithstanding incalculable disappointments, both with respect to the Israeli governments and the Palestinian Authority.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaLet us not overlook: The Palestinians in Gaza are our changeless neighbors, and we are theirs.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaIn my own view, Hamas’ disappointment gets from an absence of legitimization by Israel and by a great part of the world.

Author: A. B. YehoshuaAt the core of hostility to Semitism lies Moses. He made a disastrous blunder, a horrible mix-up, and all enemies of Semitism for a long time originated from his misjudgment.

Author: A. B. YehoshuaJerusalem doesn’t have a place just with Israelis and Palestinians, Muslims and Jews, yet to the world.
Author: A. B. YehoshuaI was pleased my dad communicated in Arabic smoothly – his dad sent him to take Arabic from a sheik – and we had Arab companions. His assignment of understanding the Arabs – governmental issues as well as verse – was significant; he accepted it as employment.

Author: A. B. YehoshuaOne of the fantasies of Zionism was to be a scaffold. Rather, we are making prohibitions between the East and the West as opposed to making spans; we are adding to the contention between East and West by our inept want to have more.
