When they insist on having a statesman they’ll get one.

When they have a state to speak of, they would then probably want a "statesman". As all they have is an occupied territory, they insist on having a "thug" to fight their occupiers.

Same goes for Israel. As they are an occupational power struggling with a home-made resistance, they keep electing soldiers. I guess even Nadine cannot bring herself to argue that Sharon is what we would call "statesman" in most Western democracies.
