There's a very famous interview of his where he's talking to, I believe, a British journalist. And the British journalist is asking him, why don't you have talks with the Israelis? And he means, what do you mean talks? You mean capitulation? You mean talking that you can't have a conversation between the sword and the neck? And I think that really summarizes the kind of values he stood for.

But many Arab countries have normalized relations with the Israeli regime since the birth of the state. It's not a new thing. But yes, I think he was talking about Egypt and Jordan at the time. Today we can include... United Arab Emirates, we could include Bahrain, we could include Morocco.

And, you know, these, again, these Abrahamic Accords, they are promoted and marketed and talked about as some kind of like religious thing. reconciliation, which I think is the most disgusting thing ever, because they're not about religious reconciliation.
