Iran is a major threat to the well-being of Europe and America just as much as it is for the state of Israel.

Every prime minister... has the responsibility to provide security for his people.

I love my country more than anything else.

There were certain people who were out to get me. I know who those people were. They exist, believe me. They know that I know. They spent millions of dollars in order to try to get rid of me. I'm happy they lost most of their money.

I never thought that Syria and Israel should engage in a violent confrontation because I don't think that there is any particular interest for any of us to do it.
