More quotes by Benjamin Netanyahu

Image
I often hear them accuse Israel of Judaizing Jerusalem. That's like accusing America of Americanizing Washington, or the British of Anglicizing London. You know why we're called 'Jews'? Because we come from Judea.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
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

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

I can tell you one thing, Iran is closer to developing nuclear weapons today than it was a week ago, or a month ago or a year ago. It's just moving on with its efforts.

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

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

Israel is so tiny. It's, you know, a little less than the length of Manhattan, without the West Bank, without Judea and Samaria.
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.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
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
Image
The people of Israel will have to be convinced that the Palestinians are ready for peace.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I don't think that anyone should doubt Israel's determination to defend itself against terror and destruction.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
The right combination is between a free economy and social policy that addresses the needs of society and creates equal opportunity.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
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
Image
Intelligence is a critical thing.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Our friendship will weather the current disagreement as well, to grow even stronger in the future.
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
If diplomacy has any chance to work, it must be coupled with a credible military threat.

Some will criticize me no matter what I do.
