We have the right to ensure our security, especially when it is possible to reach agreement on a political solution.

I would like Israel to be a Jewish state, and therefore not to annex over 2 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to Israel, which will make Israel a bi-national state.

It is my hope that I could be not just a Prime Minister, but a Prime Minister for Aboriginal affairs, the first I imagine that we've ever had.

I believe that it is my responsibility as the prime minister of Israel to do whatever can be done to exploit the unique opportunities that lie ahead of us to move towards peace. Not everything can be done by one act.

There is no way of finding the middle ground, even with the best intentions of the world. Our most sensible policy is to stall.

We accept every form or way to talk to the Syrians how to achieve peace.

It is the duty of the government to guarantee maximum security, and this is not an easy task.
