Why are we talking about talking? Why negotiating about negotiating? It’s very simple. If you want to get to peace, put all your preconditions on the side, sit down opposite a table, not in a studio, by the way.

Benjamin Netanyahu

I don’t think that anyone should doubt Israel’s determination to defend itself against terror and destruction.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Country Determination Thinking
So I think we should stay focused on the real problem in the Middle East. It’s not Israel. It’s these dictatorships that are developing nuclear weapons with the specific goal of wiping Israel away.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Country Dictatorship Middle Real Thinking
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.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Call Country Openly Palestinian Society
The instability in the region is not a result of Israel and the Palestinians. That was never the cause of this instability. Instead, the disfunctionality of many of these societies that have failed to modernize.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Causes Country Palestinian Result
We’ll attack anyone who tries to harm our citizens.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Anyone Attack Citizens Harm Trying
I think the Israeli people understand now what I always say: that there cannot be a situation, under any agreement, in which we relinquish security control of the territory west of the River Jordan.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Agreement River Thinking
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.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Cabinets Country Want Way
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

Country Goal Last Red Yard Zone
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.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Civilization Impact Objection War
Israel is doing what any other country would do, and certainly the U.S. would do. If 80 percent of your population were under fire and you had 60 seconds or 90 seconds to get into bomb shelters.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Country Fire Population Tunnel
The Israeli aggression on Gaza does not bring peace to Israel. We know that. We want end of occupation.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Aggression Country End Growth Occupation
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.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Agreement Government Real
I would say we want to stop the firing of rockets, for sure. But we also want to dismantle the terror – the tunnel – the terror tunnel networks that we have uncovered.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Dismantle Rockets Tunnel Want
I think that anyone who moves to establish a Palestinian state and evacuate territory gives territory away to radical Islamist attacks against Israel.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Country Moving Thinking
Every time an Arab leader truly wanted peace, they got it. If the Palestinians truly want peace, we will make peace.
BENJAMIN NETANYAHU

Leader Palestinian Peace Want
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.
