I'm not consumed with political machinations.

There is a fundamental situation in which the country has reached rock bottom, that a mother can't send her children out of the house in the morning. The country has reached rock bottom and this needs to be changed.

Israel has to accommodate the Palestinian demands and aspirations for ending occupation and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. That is the only answer. The Israeli aggression on Gaza does not bring peace to Israel. We know that. We want end of occupation.

I think that anyone who moves to establish a Palestinian state and evacuate territory gives territory away to radical Islamist attacks against Israel.

The US-Israel partnership transcends politics and it always will

I know that Israel does not stand alone. I know that America stands with Israel.

I know Donald Trump. I know him very well. And I think his attitude, his support for Israel is clear.
