Israel has done enormous amount of, for peace. I myself have done things that no prime minister previously had done.
Benjamin Netanyahu

If there is willingness on the Palestinian side to reach an agreement, it is possible. We are conducting the negotiations with goodwill.
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
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.

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

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
Donald Trump feels very warmly about the Jewish state, about the Jewish people and about Jewish people. There's no question about that.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
Every time an Arab leader truly wanted peace, they got it. If the Palestinians truly want peace, we will make peace.
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
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
I don't think you can rely on Iran. I don't think you can rely on other radicals like the Taliban. They dispatched Al Qaida to bomb New York and Washington. What were they thinking? Were they that stupid? They weren't stupid. There is an irrationality there, and there is madness in this method.
Benjamin Netanyahu

Israel has always been pro-American. Israel will always be pro-American.
Benjamin Netanyahu

Intelligence is a critical thing.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
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
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

Those in the international community that refuse to put red lines before Iran don't have a moral right to place a red light before Israel.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
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.
Benjamin Netanyahu
Image
I had differences of opinion with President Obama and most well-known, of course, is Iran.
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
If the world powers are not prepared to insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal is signed, at the very least they should insist that Iran change its behavior before a deal expires.
