I am in favor of talking with the Palestinians, ... I think the [aerial] bombings should be stopped. They do us more harm than good.

In this meeting we had an exchange of views, and we will continue talking, ... It is better talking than shooting.

We are talking about human rights, ... The first human right is to remain alive, and Israel is in danger. We are exercising the most important human right.

Let all of us turn from bullets to ballots, from guns to shovels.

When it comes to the Sunnis and Shiites, it is not for the United States or for us or for anyone else to settle who was the heir of Muhammad. This is a Muslim and Arab problem, and they have to deal with it.

And in England there has always been something deeply pro-Arab, of course, not among all Englishmen, and anti-Israeli, in the establishment. They abstained in the 1947 UN partition resolution... They maintained an arms embargo against us in the 1950s... They always worked against us. They think the Arabs are the underdogs.
