Talk:Abba Eban

message: The date of his death is questioned in a letter I received: Not November 16, 2002, but November 17 would be right. An article in Le Monde (from November 20) is cited in the letter. Could somebody please look this up? --Kurt Jansson 17:38, 27 Apr 2004 (UTC)

message: I will end by quoting something that was said by Abba Eban, who was Israel’s first representative at the UN and its Foreign Minister. He said this about the 1967 aftermath: “The Jewish people fail to understand that there was something contractual in our entry into the world. We promised to share the territory. The present position (that is occupation of the Palestinian territories) is a deviation from our birth. I never knew of a country that could successfully throw its birth certificate away”.
For "Fail to understand" [Leftists think they have a superior grasp of reality when in fact they are completely out of touch with reality] read: have better judgement of their indefatigable foe and a truthful grasp of history. There is no 'promise' to share 'the territory', quite the opposite! The 'birth certificate' is not only the Torah and Koran (5:20-21) but the international law and treaty of San Remo, Mandate, Montevideo Convention and UN charter article 80.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.243.167.3 (talk) 12:16, 3 March 2015 (UTC)

message: He was known for witty remarks. I very much like the story of when he was complemented on his perfect Oxford English and replied "Cambridge actually, but in politics one expects to be smeared".  Sadly I can't find a source for this on the web. Any ideas? NBeale (talk) 08:54, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

replies: text:  Thanks. Well I;ve made the edit though I'll have to trust you because I don't have the book. Can you give the page no? NBeale (talk) 20:56, 7 August 2018 (UTC)

replies: text:  Do you guys have the seniority to edit on the Oxford-Cambridge conflict? Actually, though this insertion is rather harmless, such a come-back is more or less compulsory for someone from Oxford or Cambridge who is accused of being from the other place. It is very unlikely that he invented it himself. Zerotalk 23:46, 7 August 2018 (UTC)
