Zvi Quotes in Charlie Wilson's War (2007)

Zvi: You want me to steer Israel towards an arms deal with Egypt, Pakistan, and Saudi Arabia?

Charlie Wilson: Yes.

Zvi: Well, just one or two problems with that, just off the top of my head.

Charlie Wilson: Zvi...

Zvi: Afghanistan and Pakistan don't recognize our right to exist, we just got done fighting a war against Egypt, and everyone who has ever tried to kill me or my family has been trained in Saudi Arabia!

Gust Avrakotos: That's not true, Zvi. Some of them were trained by us.

Zvi: This meeting it going to be run professional.

Gust Avrakotos: Oh absolutely. We're going to be talking to the Deputy Defense Minister while his boss gets a belly dance from a friend of Charlie's.

Zvi: What?

Charlie Wilson: A friend of mine is a well known belly dances in Texas. It's always been her dream to perform in Egypt, so she's our way in. While she's dancing for the Defense Minister, we'll be talking to the deputy.

Zvi: Oh my God.

Gust Avrakotos: No, she's supposed to be pretty good

Zvi: I love you, Charlie, but you are a grown man who still hasn't learned to look both ways before he crosses the fucking street!

[he glares at Charlie]

Zvi: Alright, I'll help you.

[he turns and looks at Avrakotos]

Zvi: But I don't like this guy!

Charlie Wilson: I know exactly how you feel.
