We are ready to compromise. We are ready to take calculated risks, but for a peace that will give us security.

This rally must send a message to the Israeli people, to the Jewish people around the world, to the many people in the Arab world, and indeed to the entire world, that the Israeli people want peace, support peace. For this, I thank you.

Here, in the Land of Israel, we returned and built a nation. Here, in the Land of Israel, we established a State. The Land of the prophets, which bequeathed to the world the values of morality, law and justice, was after two thousand years, restored to its lawful owner - the members of the Jewish People, On its Land, we have built an exceptional national Home and State.

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

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

Israel is no longer a people that dwells alone, and has to join the global journey toward peace, reconciliation and international cooperation.

The Government chose to give peace a chance. The Government chose to do something to achieve it.
