I think placing preconditions before negotiations is the quickest way to undermine peace.

I think that a strong Israel is the only Israel that will bring the Arabs to the peace table.

I think that peace will require two states, a Palestinian state that recognizes the Jewish state.

We don't point a pistol at our own forehead. That is not the way to conduct negotiations.

The Palestinians want a state, but they have to give peace in return. What they're trying to do in the United Nations is to get a state without giving Israel peace or giving Israel peace and security. And I think that's, that's wrong. That should not succeed. That should, that should fail.
