“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.”

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

We want there to be less friction. We want to remove outposts to help the Palestinian population. We will not reoccupy the Palestinian population.

American leaders worry about the security of their country. Israeli leaders worry about the survival of their country.

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.

Donald Trump feels very warmly about the Jewish state, about the Jewish people and about Jewish people. There’s no question about that.

We are using missile defense to protect our civilians, and they’re using their civilians to protect their missiles.

The people of Israel will have to be convinced that the Palestinians are ready for peace.

Throw people from the sixth floor, their own people. … They’re the enemies of peace, they’re the enemies of Israel, they’re the enemies of all civilized countries. And I believe they’re the enemies of the Palestinians themselves.

If Iran wants to be treated like a normal country, let it act like a normal country.

I’m very proud to be the prime minister of all of Israel’s citizens, Arabs and Jews alike.

The Palestinian society is split into two – those who are openly calling for Israel’s destruction like Hamas, and those who are not calling openly for Israel’s destruction but refuse to confront those who do. And that’s the Palestinian authority.

I say that to my colleagues, by the way, in the internal Cabinet meetings, I say, ‘Look, I want to be very clear about what I want.’ I just – I don’t want a peace process, I want a peace result.
