 In Their Own Words: Senior Israeli Officials on the Palestinian Question

Prime Minister & Minister of Foreign Affairs Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud Party Leader)

    [Question: If you are reelected prime minister, there will be no Palestinian state?] “Indeed.” - March 2015

    “[A]s long as Likud is in power, we won't divide Jerusalem, we won't make concessions, we won't withdraw from land." - March 2015

    “I think the Israeli people understand now what I always say: that there cannot be a situation, under any agreement, in which we relinquish security control of the territory west of the River Jordan [the occupied West Bank].” - July 2014

Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs Tzipi Hotovely (Likud)

    “We are opposed to a Palestinian state... [Netanyahu's 2009 declaration of support for a Palestinian state at Bar-Ilan University was] a tactical speech for the rest of the world." - December 2012
