Who was it that said, "We will have peace when they [the Palestinians] love their children more than they hate us [the Israelis]."?

I thought it was Golda Meir, but I can not find it.

She was an intersting woman who said a lot of interesting things.

She said something along the lines of "We can forgive them for killing our children, but we cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill theirs". She seemed to see it as something that damaged the soul.

It was Golda Meir.

Apparently some (most) Palestinian female suicide bombers have been women accused of adultery and given the choice of being stoned to death or becoming martyrs. Perhaps their children are now suffering similar fates.

I might be wrong, but I thought that Moshe Dayan said it.
