"All of the land of Israel is ours"
- Yitzhak Shamir
About this Quote
The quote by Yitzhak Shamir, "All of the land of Israel is ours," is a declaration that asserts Israel's claim to the whole territory of historic Palestine. This suggests that Israel does not acknowledge the genuine claims of the Palestinian people to their own land and rights to self-determination. It is a declaration that Israel deserves to inhabit, annex and colonize Palestine in its whole. The quote shows Israel's aggressive and expansionist policies towards the Palestinian individuals, which have actually resulted in the ongoing oppression, dispossession, and displacement of Palestinians. It highlights the ingrained conflict between Israel and Palestine and the need for a simply and fair service.
