My Strength Never Came From Political Echelons,

As One Who Participated In All The Wars Of The State Of Israel, I Saw The Horror Of Wars. I Saw The Fear Of Wars. I Saw My Best Friends Being Killed In Battles. I Was Seriously Injured Twice.

I Was Born On A Farm. My Strength Has Nothing To Do With Political Apparatus. I Get My Strength From Nature, From Flowers.

Arabs May Have The Oil, But We Have The Matches.

To Our Palestinian Neighbours, I Assure You That We Have A Genuine Intention To Respect Your Right To Live Independently And In Dignity. I Have Already Said That Israel Has No Desire To Continue To Govern Over You And Control Your Fate.

Both During The Elections And As Prime Minister, I Have Repeatedly And Publicly Said That I Support The Establishment Of A Palestinian State Alongside The State Of Israel.
