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.

I'm a proud member of the rabble.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Hezbollah-controlled Lebanon now presides over the UN Security Council. This means, in effect, that a terror organization presides over the body entrusted with guaranteeing the world's security. You couldn't make this thing up.
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
Our policy is very simple. The Jewish state was set up to defend Jewish lives, and we always reserve the right to defend ourselves.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
The purpose of the Jewish state is to secure the Jewish future. That is why Israel must always have the ability to defend itself, against any threat.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I am certain that I speak on behalf of my entire nation when I say: Today, we are all Americans. In grief, as in defiance.

Israel does not target civilians. It targets the terrorists.

You know, I think, I think the Palestinians are trying to get away without negotiating. They're trying to get a state to continue the conflict with Israel rather than to end it. They're trying to basically detour around peace negotiations by going to the U.N. and have the automatic majority in the U.N. General Assembly give them, give them a state.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I want to tell you that Israel is a democracy and every citizen is automatically registered to vote. There's a commitment in our declaration of independence, guaranteed under Israel's law, that all our citizens, Arab and Jews, alike, have the right to vote.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I think it's my responsibility, to speak up when something threatens our very future.
Benjamin Netanyahu

I had differences of opinion with President Obama and most well-known, of course, is Iran.
Benjamin Netanyahu

My first name, Benjamin, dates back a thousand years earlier to Benjamin - Binyamin - the son of Jacob, who was also known as Israel. Jacob and his 12 sons roamed these same hills of Judea and Samaria 4,000 years ago, and there's been a continuous Jewish presence in the land ever since.
Benjamin Netanyahu

I think that a strong Israel is the only Israel that will bring the Arabs to the peace table.
Benjamin Netanyahu

President Abbas, you've dedicated your life to advancing the Palestinian cause. Must this conflict continue for generations, or will we enable our children and our grandchildren to speak in years ahead of how we found a way to end it? That's what we should aim for, and that's what I believe we can achieve.

My level of intervention in the press, trying to control stories, is zero. Subzero.

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