I think that a strong Israel is the only Israel that will bring the Arabs to the peace table.

You know, I think, I think the Palestinians are trying to get away without negotiating. They're trying to get a state to continue the conflict with Israel rather than to end it. They're trying to basically detour around peace negotiations by going to the U.N. and have the automatic majority in the U.N. General Assembly give them, give them a state.

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