I Am Focused On What Needs To

A Prime Minister Has To Keep A Certain Balance When Dealing With Sensitive Issues.

We Can Never Totally Return To The Indefensible Pre-1967 Borders, ... We Simply Cannot Afford To Make Israel 14.48 Km (9 Miles) Wide Again At Its Center. We Can't Allow The Palestinians To Be A Couple Of [miles] From [tel Aviv's] Ben-gurion Airport In The Age Of Shoulder-fire Missiles With The Capacity To Shoot Down Jumbo Jets. But That Doesn't Mean We Must Remain In Every Corner Of The West Bank Or In Gaza, Where Fewer Than 10,000 Jews, Living Next To 1.3 Million Palestinians, Have Been Protected By Twice As Many Soldiers.

Look, Miracles In The Middle East Are A Reality.

I Was Not Born To Be Prime Minister, And I'm Not Going To Stay Here Until The End Of My Life. I'm Too Young For That.

Disengagement Is A Response To Certain Demographic Realities, .. Within A Few Years, Due To The Higher Arab Birth Rate, Jews Will Become A Minority In The Area Between The Jordan River And The Mediterranean Sea. I Don't Want [israel] To Be South Africa Because We Don't Believe In Apartheid. We Simply Have To Separate From The Palestinians So That We Can Control Our Own Destinies.
