If they take all the land from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River, if they take a great bulk of the West Bank, they are going to either lose their Jewish majority or their democratic nature.

Time is arguably on the Palestinian side, not on the Israeli side.

Hamas is a despicable terrorist organization that is designed to destroy the state of Israel. If I could stamp them out tomorrow, if I had the power to do it, I would do it.

I am all for kicking out Hamas, but we need to understand the reality.

Yeah, 100 percent. You had me totally, Congressman Weber, until you said kick out Hamas. I agreed with every word you said.

If we wait forever for Abbas or his successors to do the right thing, in the meantime we are going to be compromised.

Their concern is about the policy. Their concern-- these are generals. For the most part, almost all of them are not politicians.

If the Palestinian Authority crashes, one of two things is most likely to happen: Hamas or even more extreme elements take control, or the Israelis have to step in even with greater strength.

It is not my opinion; it is the policy of the Israel Government at successive stages where they were diametrically opposed to certain steps that might have led to a destructive position for the PA.

If the Israelis did that kind of action, their international legitimacy for those that are at least objective would go sky-high.

The Israelis should stop building beyond that fence.

It is the Government of Israel that has to make these decisions. And that government is, like it or not, a democratically elected government.

Of course they do. How could they not?

If I may, directly to the point, but also to the broader, I think, aim of this committee and to each and every member of the committee, which is ultimately assist the parties to create a dynamic in which a two-state outcome is feasible--a…

Separation into two states, following the Security First plan, is essential for Israel to remain a democratic, Jewish-majority state.

The creation of a demilitarized Palestinian state is not a gift to the Palestinians; rather, it is the only way Israel will remain a Jewish and democratic state.

Continuation of the diplomatic impasse will lead to further violence.

The most compelling group now advocating for a two-state solution is the Israel security establishment.

The Quartet calls on the Palestinian Authority to stop incitement of violence, bolster efforts to prevent terrorism, and, importantly, condemn attacks against Israelis.

The joint development of missile defense technologies, all-time-high intelligence-sharing, historic military training exercises, and the recent delivery of the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter all demonstrate the unbreakable bond between us and…

The strength of our strategic partnership in Turkey should be based on shared respect for democratic values and institution, not just regional interests.

The decisions with Ukraine, if we are going to be successful, and we will fail to be successful if we don't, must come from Ukrainians themselves.

If it wasn't for U.S. intervention into that era of terrible violence, the peace that is there, the success we made wouldn't be there.

If you are a Zionist and you believe in the Zionist dream, then Israel needs to figure out a way to separate from the 4- to 5 million Palestinians that live on the West Bank and Gaza.

What we have here is nothing less than two competing historical narratives.
