Quotation from Ariel Sharon “The spirit, and that is what will be decisive in the war in which we find ourselves” — June 23 2002

Appealing to Nationalist Mysticism in an Address to the Jewish Agency, Jerusalem.

Author : Thematics :
" We have one secret weapon, which is perhaps the main one which promises the chance of victory, and we must strengthen it. This secret is in your hands—in the hands of those who are here and in the hands of those who are not here—the spirit, and that is what will be decisive in the war in which we find ourselves. The spirit will be decisive but not when it is alone. All of the artillery and airplanes will be of no help if a spirit does not rise up in us; until today, this spirit has given us the power to endure and with it, we will be victorious. "

Quoted by Virginia Tilley, The One State Solution , Univ. Michigan Press, 2005, p. 175.
