We want Israel as a democratic and Jewish state. So you have to maintain a Jewish majority, and you want to do that by legal means, by democratic means.

I want Israel to be a normal state, part of the international community, part of the free world, but unique in terms of the Jewish people. I want both.

I would like Israel to be a Jewish state, and therefore not to annex over 2 million Palestinians who live in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to Israel, which will make Israel a bi-national state.

I want the State of Israel to remain a Zionist, Jewish and democratic state. There is nothing 'far' or 'ultra' about those ideals. I also advocate the creation of a viable Palestinian state.

The settlement of the Land of Israel is the essence of Zionism. Without settlement, we will not fulfill Zionism. It's that simple.

We've never been to Israel. I'd like to play in Israel.

I have often supported Israel, I have often visited the country and want the country to exist and at last find peace with its neighbours.

To think that you can - as a Zionist, Jewish independent state at the end of the 20th century - rule over another people for generations without having any consequences - it's ridiculous.

Israel deserves special treatment from the United States, both for historical reasons and because there can be no regional peace without a secure Israel.

I have no interest in Israeli citizenship... Israel does not want me, nor do I want Israel.
