“Hamas is ISIS, and ISIS is Hamas. They’re branches of the same tree. People who wantonly rocket our cities and want to conduct mass killings. And when they can, they murder children, teenagers, shoot them in the head.”

And I represent the entire people of Israel who say, ‘Thank you, America.” And we’re friends of America, and we’re the only reliable allies of America in the Middle East.

We will respond with a heavy hand to the brutal murder of Jews who came to pray and were killed by lowly murderers.

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.

I’ve been right more than I’ve been wrong.

The Czech Republic stood with the U.S., Canada and a handful of other countries against the prevailing international current, but history has shown us time and again that what is right is not what is popular.

If we accept the notion that terrorists will have immunity because as they fire on civilians they hide behind civilians, then this tactic will be legitimized and the terrorists will have their greatest victory.

I’m the prime minister who removed 400 checkpoints, barriers, road-blocks and so on to facilitate the growth of the Palestinian economy.

My level of intervention in the press, trying to control stories, is zero. Subzero.

I’m not consumed with political machinations.

When I say that terrorism is war against civilization, I may be met by the objection that terrorists are often idealists pursuing worthy ultimate aims — national or regional independence, and so forth. I do not accept this argument.

The prime minister of Israel is welcome to speak in the United States, obviously. But we don’t want to see this turned into some great political football

I’m not naturally manipulative.

History has shown us time and again that what is right is not what is popular.

Hamas is simply continuing all its operations. And Israel will not let this terror operation decide when it’s convenient for them and not convenient for them to attack our people.

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.

The application of military force, or the prospect of such application, inhibits terrorist violence.

I knew I wasn’t going to be a rocket scientist – let’s not be fools – but I wasn’t going to be a bum.

It seems farther away now because there are no rockets getting there. Nobody is going.

In their last four Blackburn have lost 3-0, 3-1, 5-3 and 3-2. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to work out that’s 12 goals conceded

The thing that interests me least about the radio business is the radio business. But I’ve had to learn a little bit about it. It’s not rocket science: You get ratings, that’s good.

That’s our job – to strap rockets onto everything.

And you can’t go anywhere in the sky unless you have a plane or some kind of rocket.

I’ve been told I sold 110m albums and singles. If that’s the case, I should’ve come here in a space rocket.

I feel terrible for a Palestinian child who dies. But, if it’s your father, your brother or your uncle who was firing those rockets into Israel, whose fault is it really? Do you really expect the Israelis not to retaliate?
