This is a misquote of Shamir from a 1988 NYT interview. Here's what he actually said: "There are those who say that Jews are invaders in this country...We say to them, when we look from here on the thousands of years of our past...that they are as grasshoppers in our sight." https://www.nytimes.com/1988/04/20/opinion/l-were-in-our-own-sight-as-grasshoppers-305188.html
