In Israel politics, four years is like 400 years in Europe.

I believe that the presidential term should be limited.

The law limits anyone from serving as president of the United States for more than eight years. And in my opinion - well, eight years is also long enough for an individual to serve as a representative for a specific Congressional district.

In my opinion eight years as president is enough and sometimes too much for any man to serve in that capacity.

I became a prime minister within four-and-a-half years, the shortest kind of career ever in Israeli political history.

There's no doubt we'd be very angry if the American president had come to the Knesset and argued against the government of Israel.

The scale of time for a politician runs between one primary and the next, and in Israel, this means two to three years because elections almost never take place once every four years as stipulated by law. The timetable for a system of research is completely different.

According to Netanyahu, he should rule like a Caesar, and the Knesset should be run by the tyranny of the majority.

The people of Israel have lived 3,700 years without a memorandum of understanding with America and will continue to live without it another 3,700 years.

Ever since Israel has been a nation the United States has provided the leadership. Every president down to the ages has done this in a fairly balanced way, including George Bush senior, Gerald Ford, and others including myself and Bill Clinton.
