You don't have people chanting 'Death to America' in Israel.

I think that peace will require two states, a Palestinian state that recognizes the Jewish state.

I don't know of any army that does more than an Israeli army does to avoid civilian casualties. But incidental and unintended casualties accompany every war.

90 percent, 85 to 90 percent of Israeli citizens in Judea-Samaria, in the West Bank, live in clusters, in urban blocks. Everybody understands that if we were to have a solution then those blocks would stay in Israel. And that's where you saw these cranes; that's where Israelis live. In the Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem, everybody understands, they will stay.

I don't think Israel can accept an Iranian terror base next to its major cities any more than the United States could accept an al Qaeda base next to New York City.

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

Those in the international community that refuse to put red lines before Iran don't have a moral right to place a red light before Israel.
