:18:00
It's not the first time
this happens in history.
:18:03
I don't know of one nation,
whether existing now or in the past...
:18:07
...that was not born in violence.
:18:10
Terror, violence, death.
:18:13
They are the midwives
who bring free nations into this world.
:18:17
Compromisers like the Haganah
produce only abortions.
:18:20
Before you have a country,
you have to have people.
:18:23
That's the job we've done.
Tens of thousands of people smuggled in...
:18:26
...with the whole British Navy
blockading the coast.
:18:30
The population we've built
is our most valid argument for independence.
:18:33
How can we ask the UN for a just decision...
:18:36
...when we keep blowing up things
like a bunch of anarchists?
:18:39
You have just used the
words "a just decision."
:18:42
May I tell you something?
:18:45
Firstly...
:18:46
...justice itself is an abstraction...
:18:49
...completely devoid of reality.
:18:52
Second, to speak of justice and Jews
in the same breath...
:18:57
...is a logical uncertainty.
:18:59
Thirdly...
:19:00
...one can argue the justice
of Arab claims on Palestine...
:19:04
...just as one can argue
the justice of Jewish claims.
:19:08
Fourthly...
:19:09
...no one can say the Jews have not had...
:19:11
...more than their share of injustice
these past 10 years.
:19:14
I therefore say, fifthly...
:19:18
...Let the next injustice
work against somebody else for a change.
:19:21
You just changed the subject on me.
:19:24
You noticed.
:19:25
I suppose that means more bombings
and more killings?
:19:28
I'll put it this way.
:19:30
Let the National Committee keep on trying
to talk the British out of Palestine.
:19:34
We have no objections.
We will continue to bomb them out.
:19:39
-Now tell me, how is your mother?
-She's fine.
:19:43
And little Jordana?
:19:46
Little Jordana just won her second
marksmanship medal with the Palmach.
:19:52
And that young rascal, David Ben Ami,
she's still interested?
:19:56
She can't wait till he
gets back from Cyprus.
