If I have to reduce all of the laws of war into a single sentence, it is this. You divide the world into two, combatants and noncombatants. You can attack deliberately combatants, but not deliberately noncombatants. Israel acts that way. It attacks combatants and accidentally kills noncombatants. But in the case of the terrorists, it's the exact opposite. They deliberately attack combatants - noncombatants, civilians, deliberately.

Israel should have exploited the repression of the demonstrations in China, when world attention focused on that country, to carry out mass expulsions among the Arabs of the territories.

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

If diplomacy has any chance to work, it must be coupled with a credible military threat.

Intelligence is a critical thing.

Israel has done enormous amount of, for peace. I myself have done things that no prime minister previously had done.

Israel does not target civilians. It targets the terrorists.
