    Golda Meir- "East Bank and West Bank was Palestine. I'm a Palestinian. From 1921 to 1948, I carried a Palestinian passport". Golda Meir (4th prime minister of Israel from 1969 to 1974). The clip can be found on YouTube . The interview was in a Thames TV documentary called "Iron Lady of Israeli politics" in 1970.
