Leaders must see reality as it is, not as it ought to be.

If the world powers are not prepared to insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal is signed, at the very least they should insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal expires.

There is a great danger to the world, not only to my country [Israel] but to the United States, to the Middle East, to peace, to all of humanity, from the prospect that such regimes that brutalize its own people, that sponsors terrorism more than any other regime in the world - that this regime acquires atomic bombs is very, very dangerous.

The Israelis wanted to sabotage the Palestinian - Palestinian reconciliation.

I don't think that anyone should doubt Israel's determination to defend itself against terror and destruction.

Everything should be done to prevent Iran, the world's most dangerous regime, from developing the world's most dangerous weapons.

My level of intervention in the press, trying to control stories, is zero. Subzero.
