The sad and horrible conclusion is that no one cared that Jews were being murdered… This is the Jewish lesson of the Holocaust and this is the lesson which Auschwitz taught us. – Ariel Sharon
Staying in Likud means wasting time in political squabbles rather than acting on behalf of the good of the country. – Ariel Sharon

All together, we know for many years that terror is the most dangerous thing for local, regional and international stability. – Ariel Sharon
