Brent Scowcroft, American Public Servant (1925-  )

Charles de Secondat, French Philosopher (1689-1755)
I fought for peace in the fifties.

Arafat rejected the deal because, as a dictator who had directed all his energies toward strengthening the Palestinians hatred toward Israel, Arafat could not afford to make peace.
Natan Sharansky, Russian Writer (1948-  )

Natan Sharansky, Russian Writer (1948-  )
Unfortunately, little attention was paid to how Arafat ruled. In fact, some saw the harsh and repressive nature of Arafat's regime as actually bolstering the prospects for peace.
Natan Sharansky, Russian Writer (1948-  )
The only peace that can be made with a dictator is once that must be based on deterrence. For today, the dictator may be your friend, but tomorrow he will need you as an enemy.
