"I have heard--in Pakistan, in Afghanistan, in Sudan, in other parts of the world--the constant drumbeat of the way the Palestinians are treated, and of Israel-Palestine relations."

"I'm in favor of direct talks, but I think, right now, to have proximity talks is not the worst we can do."

"We need a new policy toward Gaza, a more energetic policy that opens it up to normal trade and traffic."

"If we want to have peace between Israelis and Palestinians, I believe, today, moving toward peace between Israelis and Syrians is not an obstacle, it's a precondition."
