“'I am committed to peace, but not forever,' Mr. Abbas said. 'I don't mean I will turn to violence—never. In my life. I will never do it. But I cannot stay in my office forever doing nothing.'”
—from an interview with Bernard Avishai, New York Times Magazine. The statement was intended for an international audience.
Abbas to an Arab Audience:
“I have said more than once that if the Arabs want war, we are with them.”
