There is an alliance between Israel and the United States, and it has never been stronger than at the time of George W. Bush.

The United States is a strong and ardent ally of Israel. The fact of the matter is that friends can disagree. I think what's important is that world leaders are able to sit down with one another, have frank conversations and move forward.

Israel is an independent country with a large army, and it has the ability to do what it thinks is right.

America has some capabilities that Israel doesn't have. And Israel cannot place their security in the hands of Barack Obama; they can't do it.

I believe that Israel is much stronger than many of its leaders.

Israel must take decisions that are good to Israel. We must not try to satisfy anyone else, including our closest ally, the United States of America.

We have no stronger ally anywhere in the world than Israel.

Israel is the strongest nation in the Middle East, but we have to apply our strength wisely.

I believe that the U.S. is the strongest country in the whole world and the country that supports Israel the most. I believe that it has the strength to push Israel towards peace.

The relationship between Israel and the United States is a bond of - it's just a very powerful bond. It was, it is, and will be and will continue to be.
