We have peace with Israel. We're actually the last man standing. So there is going to be immense pressure and people asking, 'Why are we having this relationship when it's not benefiting anybody?' Obviously, my answer is you always benefit from peace.

Don't take 'no' for an answer.

When there's a status quo, usually what shakes everybody up is some sort of military confrontation, at which point we all come running and screaming to pick up the pieces.

We're never going to be able to get rid of terrorism, because there is always going to be evil in the world.

Chemical weapons are something that scares everybody.

I'm just very wary that once you start military operations in any country, it's very difficult to predict what the outcome is.

You're always going to have extremists in every religion.
