I think it's my responsibility, to speak up when something threatens our very future.

And by the way, a piece of news, Israel is the one country in which everyone is pro-American, opposition and coalition alike. And I represent the entire people of Israel who say, 'Thank you, America.'' And we're friends of America, and we're the only reliable allies of America in the Middle East.

The purpose of the Jewish state is to secure the Jewish future. That is why Israel must always have the ability to defend itself, against any threat.

I think the Israeli people understand now what I always say: that there cannot be a situation, under any agreement, in which we relinquish security control of the territory west of the River Jordan.

We will take whatever action is necessary to protect our people, including against the terror tunnels that they are trying to dig against us.

There’s no one in Israel who appreciates more than me the importance of American support for Israel.

The right combination is between a free economy and social policy that addresses the needs of society and creates equal opportunity.
