A prime minister has to keep a certain balance when dealing with sensitive issues.

I know the war in Iraq is controversial in the States, but for us in the Middle East it has made a great and significant impact.

There is a Western world. There is America. There is Great Britain and Germany and France and Russia and China and other nations. I doubt that there is one country amongst those I mentioned which has a desire to see Iran, with its fundamentalist, Islamic, extremist government, possessing nuclear weapons.

The formula for the parameters of a unilateral solution are: To maximize the number of Jews; to minimize the number of Palestinians; not to withdraw to the 1967 border and not to divide Jerusalem.

I sometimes feel tired. But there are so many reasons for being tired.

Leadership is tested not by one's capacity to survive politically but by the ability to make tough decisions in trying times.
