I say that President Trump became part of the problem, not part of the solution.

I think personally speaking, I think if the two states are undermined between the river of Jordan and the Mediterranean, Palestinians should focus on one state equal rights.
Now the United States, the President acts more Israeli than the Israelis.
No, Anderson. No. We don't want the rocket to be fired. We want to sustain the cease-fire. We want to extend the cease-fire and we're exerting every possible effort to do that.
I want rockets not to be fired. I want Israel to stop bombarding Gaza because I think today, six Palestinians were killed between the West Bank in Gaza today and that's not the point here.
I don't condone the killing of civilians. I don't condone the killing of Israelis. I want to make peace and live and let live and I want to give this cease-fire the chance it deserves.
What we're saying is that it's in the Palestinian interest to sustain and maintain and extend the cease-fire and at the same time, the balance here is to alleviate the suffering for the 1.7 million people in Gaza.
Absolutely. Absolutely. I think every effort is being exerted now to sustain and extend the cease-fire and at the same time, alleviate the suffering of people in Gaza.
We have no electricity, no water, no medical supplies, 450,000 people are without shelter.
You need to have a strong Palestinian government that will come through ballots not bullets, that come through the elections which we intend to convene for all Palestinian parties and that's the way forward and that's the way to make peace.
Well, I think, Anderson, what we need now is first to sustain the cease-fire, the next 72 hours are crucial. And then at the same time, we are working to extend the cease-fire for -- to make it permanent.
