In the past, most wars were motivated by the idea of nationhood. Today, however, wars are incited above all using religion as an excuse.

I've worked with 10 presidents. It's a record. I worked with Republicans and Democrats. All of them when it came to Israel were, movingly, friendly.

Optimists and pessimists die the exact same death, but they live very different lives!

In Israel, a land lacking in natural resources, we learned to appreciate our greatest national advantage: our minds. Through creativity and innovation, we transformed barren deserts into flourishing fields and pioneered new frontiers in science and technology.
