More quotes by Benjamin Netanyahu
I had differences of opinion with President Obama and most well-known, of course, is Iran.
Benjamin Netanyahu
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
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
I know Donald Trump. I know him very well. And I think his attitude, his support for Israel is clear.
Benjamin Netanyahu
I'm not consumed with political machinations.
Benjamin Netanyahu
I don't want a single state. And I talked about two states where a demilitarized Palestinian state recognizes the Jewish state, and I stand by that. I haven't retracted my position I haven't changed it.
Benjamin Netanyahu
The history of warfare has not yet enabled any army, any civilized army, the army of a democracy like Israel, to be able to deal with a ruthless terrorist enemy that uses civilians as a human shield without having some incidental civilian casualties.
Benjamin Netanyahu
But so far, you know who's been violating the nuclear nonproliferation pact day and night? Those who signed it. Iran, Iraq, Libya and Iran violates it while calling for Israel's destruction and racing to develop atomic weapons to that end.
Benjamin Netanyahu
You don't have people chanting 'Death to America' in Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu
My level of intervention in the press, trying to control stories, is zero. Subzero.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Iran is a country that talks about, denies the Holocaust, promises to wipe out Israel, is engaged in terror throughout the world. This is a regime that is giving vent to the worst impulses that you see right now in the Middle East. They deny the rights of women, deny democracy, brutalize their own people, don't give freedom of religion.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Our friendship will weather the current disagreement as well, to grow even stronger in the future.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Don’t be fooled. The battle between Iran and ISIS doesn’t turn Iran into a friend of America.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Israel does not target civilians. It targets the terrorists.
Benjamin Netanyahu
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
I will go to the UN General Assembly and, in a clear voice, tell the nations of the world the truth about Iran's terrorist regime, which constitutes the greatest threat to world peace.
Benjamin Netanyahu
There is an irreplaceable ally. It's called the United States of America.
Benjamin Netanyahu
The Romans used to say that courage is not the only virtue, but it's the only one that makes the other virtues possible.
Benjamin Netanyahu
The Iranian acquisition of nuclear weapons would be infinitely more costly than any scenario you can imagine to stop it.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Donald Trump feels very warmly about the Jewish state, about the Jewish people and about Jewish people. There's no question about that.
