We completely condemn this very dangerous attack, and I convey my condolences to the American people, to the American president and to the American administration, not only in my name, but on behalf of the Palestinian people.

Let us be worthy of those who pin their hopes on us. May God bless you with success.

I know the American administration is trying to refurbish its image after Irangate, especially in the Middle East and among their friends in this area. No doubt about it. We are following it.

I am not receiving orders from Ariel Sharon.

I am challenging Ezer Weizman to accept the democratic state where both of us can live in this democratic state. What confederation? No. One democratic state. He declared one offer, I am declaring the other offer. With two communities.

It is another face in the new atmosphere of many leaders inside Israel. No doubt it is something new. Actually, Ezer Weizman is a Palestinian. He was born in Haifa.

I can't let it pass when you say: "You are the weak party." No, I am not the weak party. I am the man who is making the war. I am the man who is making the peace.
