This article warrants a lot more information from someone knowledgeable....DW
DW, Agreed -- there must be more that's interesting. BTW could you put some information about the source and copyright status of the Golda Meir image on its description page please? Thanks. Mswake 12:18 Jan 17, 2003 (UTC)
- Hi DW - in the absence of confirmed public domain status, I've removed the image. If you put it back, please give details of its copyright status and source. Mswake 08:58 Jan 22, 2003 (UTC)
Literature
Should be more on literature about / by Meir. Particularly, her autobiography 'My Life' and the stage production Golda's Balcony.
Quotes
The article fails to mention that most arabs regard Golda Meir as being in the same league as Hitler or Stalin. Consider the blatantly racist and judeo-centric comments, which finaly display an ideology no better than the aryan supremacy and master race ideologies of the nazis Golda Meir so much despized:
"This country exists as the fulfillment of a promise made by God Himself. It would be ridiculous to ask it to account for its legitimacy."—Golda Meir, Le Monde, 15 October 1971.
"It is not only a matter, I believe, of religious observance and practice. To me, being Jewish means and has always meant being proud to be part of a people that has maintained its distinct identity for more than 2,000 years, with all the pain and torment that has been inflicted upon it" -Golda Meir in her autobiography, "My Life".

- I don't see anything wrong with either of these quotes. Would you blame a Greek for being Hellenist-centric, or anyone else for that matter for being proud for who she is? However I find your rhetoric highly inflammatory. Most Arabs do not believe that The Protocols of the Elders of Zion is a fraud, so what? This doesn't add it any legitimacy. ←Humus sapiens←Talk 08:01, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
