We came in as a wind of peace and we are determined to do so, ... We didn't come in for power and we didn't come in for cover. We came in for a new initiative, and we are very serious and very determined to achieve it. |
We deeply dread the idea that the terrorism will move from Gaza to the West Bank which is why we are carrying out preventive operations, |
We didn't fly into generalities. We really tried to touch ground, ... Our position is that we don't negotiate under fire but we talk about how to stop fire. |
We don't intend to extend settlements, as I have said, and how to stop natural growth is a very difficult definition. I can hardly understand what it is.

We must pay attention to the situation and the mood of the Palestinian people in the territories. We do not want them to suffer, we do not want them to pay a price for terror and violence, |
We must submit a clear-cut request to the UN secretary general and the Security Council to obtain Iran's expulsion from the United Nations, |
We need to check if this really happened, |
We never said that we would introduce nuclear weapons. Israel repeatedly declared that we are never going to introduce nuclear weapons - Israel has never made any test of nuclear weapons and we are very careful about it. |
We respect also the resolutions of the U.N. Security Council, which has two parts, but we cannot fulfill our part because the other part will not be fulfilled again, namely there was the call to the Palestinians to stop terror, to stop incitement and to arrest terrorists, |
