Close To 80 Percent Of All Terrorist Activity In Samaria Was Directed And Financed Either By Hizbullah Or The Iranians. Iran Continues To Increase Its Involvement In Terror Attacks Inside Israel, Particularly Through A Small But Radical Minority Of Israeli Arabs Which Iran Supports And Directs.

To The Citizens Of Israel, I Say: We Have Passed Difficult Years, Faced The Most Painful Experiences And Overcome Them. The Future Lies Before Us. We Are Required To Take Difficult And Controversial Steps, But We Must Not Miss The Opportunity To Try To Achieve What We Have Wished For, For So Many Years: Security, Tranquillity And Peace.
