My guide had a copy of Palestine on my last trip to Gaza. He'd bring it out and show people what I was trying to do. That usually went over pretty well.

It is clear a Palestinian state is needed.
As prime minister, I was the Israeli leader who walked the greatest distance in his offers to the Palestinians.
The Palestinians are facing a historic junction at which they will have to decide whether they want to remain stuck in a corner of extreme fundamentalism, which will cut them off from the entire world, or whether they are ready to take the necessary steps. My role is to assist in building this process.

It's very hard to talk about Palestine to Jewish people - they see me as a betrayer.
