We have to recognize that there is a Palestinian entity, that the PLO and the Palestinian Authority has to run their life.

Vis a vis the Golan Heights, the present government of Israel, under my leadership, is the first government that is ready to speak about a withdrawal.

We must think differently, look at things in a different way. Peace requires a world of new concepts, new definitions.

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

Enough of blood and tears. Enough!

We will not leave the Golan Heights, not even in exchange for a peace treaty. We will be ready for a limited compromise and it does not have to be in territorial terms.

I, serial number 30743, Major General Yitzhak Rabin, am a soldier in the army of peace.
