“Let me tell you something that we Israelis have against Moses. He took us 40 
years through the desert in order to bring us to the one spot in the Middle 
East that has no oil!”

—Prime Minister Golda Meir of Israel, at a state dinner honoring Chancellor 
Willy Brandt of West Germany (June 10, 1973).

Nearer to home:

The “freedom fighters” led to the Indian Army putting an end to 450 years of 
Portuguese rule.

They also helped to ensure that we now become subject to bribery, corruption 
and bad governance for another 450.
