A diplomatic peace is not yet the real peace. It is an essential step in the peace process leading towards a real peace.
Yitzhak Rabin
The Government chose to give peace a chance. The Government chose to do something to achieve it.
Yitzhak Rabin
I think the fact that we have been focussing on politics quite a lot and the tumult of politics rather than what we should be doing in terms of policy has made, I think, voters quite grumpy.
Yitzhak Rabin
We are ready to compromise. We are ready to take calculated risks, but for a peace that will give us security.
Yitzhak Rabin
There are two phases of the redeployment of the Israeli forces in the West Bank: One, to allow elections. Second, after the elections, to help further redeployment.
Yitzhak Rabin
I'll continue to carry out whatever we are committed to. Whatever we believe leads us to a permanent solution the way we want it, the way I want it.
Yitzhak Rabin
Peace will be victorious.
