Quote

If we accept the notion that terrorists will have immunity because as they fire on civilians they hide behind civilians, then this tactic will be legitimized and the terrorists will have their greatest victory.

Israel has always been pro-American. Israel will always be pro-American.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Anyone who is going to establish a Palestinian state, anyone who is going to evacuate territories today, is simply giving a base for attacks to the radical Islam against Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
They're in the red zone. They're in the last 20 yards, and you can't let them cross that goal line. You can't let them score a touchdown, because that would have unbelievable consequences, grievous consequences for the peace and security of us all, of the world really.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
This is why, as a prime minister of Israel, I can promise you one more thing: Even if Israel has to stand alone, Israel will stand. But I know that Israel does not stand alone. I know that America stands with Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
You can make peace with an enemy, if the enemy abandons the idea of destroying you. That is the critical test. Democracies fail to understand what I just said.

You don't have people chanting 'Death to America' in Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu

The entire world is focusing on the compromises that are necessary from Israel's side. But people [in the world] are not focusing on the fact that the Palestinians refuse to make the necessary compromises that are required on their side for peace.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Israelis do not need to be lectured about the importance of peace by foreign leaders.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
There is a fundamental situation in which the country has reached rock bottom, that a mother can't send her children out of the house in the morning. The country has reached rock bottom and this needs to be changed.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
In the frameworks of a peace agreement, a government under my leadership would agree to make real territorial concessions but will not compromise our security borders. We want there to be less friction. We want to remove outposts to help the Palestinian population. We will not reoccupy the Palestinian population.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Most of the approaches to peace between Israel and the Palestinians, have been directed at trying to resolve the most complex problems, like refugees and Jerusalem, which is akin to building the pyramid from the top down.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
The application of military force, or the prospect of such application, inhibits terrorist violence.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Israel should have exploited the repression of the demonstrations in China, when world attention focused on that country, to carry out mass expulsions among the Arabs of the territories.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
There is an irreplaceable ally. It's called the United States of America.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I know Donald Trump. I know him very well. And I think his attitude, his support for Israel is clear.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Certainly the international community is putting a lot of pressure on Iran and making clear that its nuclear program must stop. If it stops with the sanctions, the combinations of sanctions, diplomacy, other pressures, I, as the prime minister of Israel, will be the happiest person in the world.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I don't think that anyone should doubt Israel's determination to defend itself against terror and destruction.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I don't think Israel can accept an Iranian terror base next to its major cities any more than the United States could accept an al Qaeda base next to New York City.
