When I studied at the music academy in Jerusalem, the Foreign Minister's villa was right next door. Twice I saw Abba Eban outside his home - on the balcony and stepping to the sidewalk to meet a visitor. That was a thrill!
So eloquent and persuasive. Haters will always hate.. but there’s a reason this tiny country has achieved exponentially more than all its hater neighbors. General rule: You will never find a hater more successful than you.
From Wikipedia: 'Abba Solomon Meir Eban[1] (/ˈɑːbə ˈiːbən/ ⓘ; Hebrew: אבא שלמה אבן [ˈ(ʔ)aba ˈ(ʔ)even]; born Aubrey Solomon Meir Eban; 2 February 1915 - 17 November 2002) was a South African-born Israeli diplomat and politician, and a scholar of the Arabic and Hebrew languages'
israel should never have given back sharm el sheikh to egypt. For the average egyptian sharm was/is totally and utterly meaningless. For israel it would have given security over the straits if tiran. Now israel needs to rely on arab whims and caprice - at any moment a radical islamic government could takeover egypt and it would be chaos all over again
So interesting to noe the verbal aggression of aba eben so long ago as well as an uncompromising approach to so called pace negotiations. No wonder that the Palestinians realized after decades of brutal occupation that israel has no interest whatsoever in peace or in living peacefully with its neighbors least of all with the oppressed Palestinians
Israel has excellent negotiators in ever era. The Arabs won't accept any Jewish State. 'nothing new. The next major war initiated by Arabs would come 2 years after this program.

Which country did Abba Eban emigrate from to the settler state?
Apartheid state of south Africa
Looking in vain to find any remotely comparable interlocutor from the Arab or broader Islamic worlds - in Eban's time or our own.
