Here’s a transcript from a 2001 video I pulled a while ago. Wasn’t easy to find. I posted the video back in the Gaza War thread.
Netanyahu: “The main thing first of all is to strike them not once, but several times so painfully that the price they pay is unbearable. So far the price tag is not unbearable. I mean a large scale attack on the Palestinian authority causing them to fear that everything is about to collapse.” He goes on to say that he doesn’t care if the U.S. perceives Israel as the aggressor. “Especially with the U.S. I know how they are. America is something you can easily maneuver and move in the right direction. And even if they say something, so what. 80% of Americans support us— It’s absurd. I wasn’t afraid to confront Clinton. I wasn’t afraid to go against the UN.” “The accords were ratified by parliament. I gave my own interpretation to the agreements, in such a way that will allow me to stop the race back towards the 1967 borders. Nobody defined what the military facilities are. So I defined them as being security zones.” “The entire Jordan Valley for me is a security zone. You see, go figure. But then there was the question of who will define these military facilities. I received a letter from Secretary of State Warren to me and Arafat at the same time saying that Israel, and Israel alone, will define the military facilities, their locations and size.” “Now, they didn’t want to give me this letter, so I refused to sign the accords. I stopped the government meeting, and I said I won’t sign. And only when the letter has arrived to me and Arafat, I signed the Hebron accords. It’s better to give 2% than 100%, and this is the choice we faced. You gave 2% but you stopped the withdrawals, rather than 100%.” |
Reminds me of how Netanyahu said the US is easily manipulated into doing his bidding and how he has been so successful: “I know what America is,” Netanyahu said. “America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction. They won’t get in the way." |
You still believe that yellowcake story, huh? |
I think Trump is scared of anything that would draw the US into potential ongoing military action. |
Without a shadow of a doubt. I also believe, Israel, I mean Iran has nuclear capabilities. |
Sounds like an Israel problem. How about Israel stop killing the Palestinians and give their land back? |
The yellowcake story manufactured by our “allies” in the Israeli IC community? |
You have no evidence Israel has any nuclear weapons. |
Oh, poor Mordechai Vanunu... |
After Israel intelligence spread that lie about Iraq’s WMD, Israel intelligence agencies should never be believed. |
Good grief. Goodbye Felicia. |
Right, just like there's no evidence Israel deliberately attacked the USS Liberty, murdering 34 Americans and wounding 171 others. We should always believe them at their word. |
Lets send his kids to Iran to do it. |
He's not scared. He's smart. When will people finally give him his credit? |
He also called 9/11 a good thing for Israel. He said this in September of 2001, days after the attack . In contrast, Iranians were crying in the streets mourning for Americans. We saw not one tear from an Israeli |
