It is not in our hands to prevent the murder of workers… and families… but it is in our hands to fix a high price for our blood, so high that the Arab community and the Arab military forces will not be willing to pay it.

Moshe Dayan would wake up with a hundred ideas. Of them ninety-five were dangerous; three more had to be rejected; the remaining two, however, were brilliant.
Ariel Sharon
Israeli minister of defense Moshe Dayan—the architect of Israel’s astonishing victory in the 1967 Six-Day War—also wrote an essay on the story of David and Goliath. According to Dayan, “David fought Goliath not with inferior but (on the contrary) with superior weaponry; and his greatness consisted not in his being willing to go out into battle against someone far stronger than he was. But in his knowing how to exploit a weapon by which a feeble person could seize the advantage and become stronger.
Malcolm Gladwell (David and Goliath: Underdogs, Misfits, and the Art of Battling Giants)

Kissinger once said of Israel’s Moshe Dayan that he was “a brilliant manipulator of people and yet emotionally dependent on them.
Walter Isaacson (Kissinger: A Biography)
One of the most startling phenomena I ever witnessed occured in the South after the Arab- israelei Six-day war. I doubt if the world has ever seen such a rapid ceasefire in anti-semetism. I heard one Southern man after another say in tones that i can only describe as gleeful: 'by dern, those Jew boys sure can fight!' One man seriously recommended that Congress pass a special act making Moshe Dayan an American citizen so that he could become Secretary of Defense. He had obviously found a new hero;'as he put it 'That one-eyed bastid would wipe out anybody offin the map whut gave us any trouble.
Florence King (Southern Ladies and Gentlemen)
When you accept our views we shall be in full agreement with you.
Moshe Dayan
Most of the original Jewish freedom fighters who fought to establish Israel against all worldly forces, are now dead. Israel’s David Ben-Gurions and Moshe Dayans are gone. The next generation of Israeli leadership were tough, disciplined and resolute in preserving control over the land that God placed in their hands. Those leaders are now no longer in power. Recently, Israel was led by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, who was, to put it charitably, no David Ben Gurion. He made it clear that he would deal away the land that the Lord granted to Israel, even saying in his final days in office that to attain peace with the Palestinians, Israel would have to withdraw “from nearly all of the West Bank as well as East Jerusalem.
John Price (The End of America: The Role of Islam in the End Times and Biblical Warnings to Flee America)
Moshe Dayan’s closing remarks to the students in Haifa in 1969 echo what Ehud Barak told his audience in 2010. Forty years ago, Dayan – the man who, I was told as a teenager, was “the one-eyed Dajaal,” or Antichrist – uttered words of wisdom that have gone unheeded. “We have to supply the people [Palestinians] with employment and services, give them civil rights, and not treat them as enemies. The question is: What are we aiming for? Shall we be an occupying power, keeping the Arabs as an oppressed population of second- and third-class citizens and tell them: ‘You won’t do this, you won’t do that, you won’t study at the university, and if you protest, we shall impose curfew?’ Or should we aim at a common life, with Jews learning to live together with Arabs? If so, we have to be neighbours, and not conquerors.”16
Tarek Fatah (The Jew is Not My Enemy: Unveiling the Myths that Fuel Muslim Anti-Semitism)
Arab-speaking Jews, like Moshe Dayan, had been sent, disguised as Arabs, on dangerous missions to help liberate Vichy-held Syria and Lebanon, and to Iraq to help quell the pro-Nazi uprising.
Ruth Gruber (Raquela: A Woman of Israel)
that the entire Temple Mount is under the control of the Muslim Waqf. This site has been under such control since it was allowed by Israeli General Moshe Dayan to go into Jordanian hands following Israel’s victory in the 1967 Six Day War. It is still a mystery to many why Dayan agreed to such a thing.

Moshe Dayan Gómez Pico (La Biblia para niños: Parábolas (Niños valientes nº 3) (Spanish Edition))
Las personas algunas veces nos dejamos llevar por la vida terrenal, pensamos en tener propiedades, lujos, una gran cuenta bancaria, esforzarnos para crecer y ser ricos. Sin embargo Dios nos dice que los tesoros están en el cielo y la vida eterna.
Moshe Dayan Gómez Pico (La Biblia para niños: Parábolas (Niños valientes nº 3) (Spanish Edition))
Unfortunately, the average American and Englishman suffers from remorse. You must learn to overcome that, or else it will slow you down at a crucial moment and cause your own death. Killing a Jerry is like swatting a fly. Keep thinking that, shoot a few, then you’ll sleep like a baby after even the bloodiest shambles. Only two things will interest you: getting the job done and getting away.
Shabtai Teveth (Moshe Dayan)
When Israel captured the Temple Mount during the Six-Day War in 1967, the geopolitical fallout of taking full control of Zion was considered so dangerous that the first action of Israel’s Defense Minister Moshe Dayan was to take down the Israeli flag that paratroopers had raised over the mount.
