territory for peace we got territory for terror that's what we had and that's what would happen as long as the the reigning ideology says we don't want israel in any border so the the idea of uh two states assumes that you'd have on the other side a state that wants to live in peace and not one that will be overtaken by iran and its proxies in two seconds and become a base to destroy israel and therefore i think that most israelis today if you ask them uh

They're, you know, they'd say it's not going to work in that concept. So what do you do? What do you do with the Palestinians? Okay. They're still there. And I don't, unlike them, I don't want to throw them out. They're going to be living here and we're going to be living here in an area which is, by the way, just so understand, the area, the entire area of Palestine,

so-called West Bank and Israel, is the width of the Washington Beltway, more or less. Just a little more, not much more. You can't really divide it up. You can't say, well, you're going to fly in. Who controls the airspace? Well, it takes you about two and a half minutes to cross it with a regular 747, okay? With a fighter plane, it takes you a minute and a half.

How are you going to divide the airspace? Well, you're not going to divide it. Israel is going to control that airspace and the electromagnetic space and so on. So security has to be in the hands of Israel. My view of how you solve this problem is a simple principle.

The Palestinians should have all the powers to govern themselves and none of the powers to threaten Israel, which basically means that the responsibility for overall security remains with Israel. And from a practical point of view, we've seen that every time that Israel leaves a territory and takes its security forces out of an area, it immediately is overtaken by Hamas or Hezbollah

or jihadists who basically are committed to the destruction of Israel and also bring misery to the Palestinians or Arab subjects. So I think that that principle is less than perfect sovereignty. because you're taking a certain amount of power, sovereign powers, especially security, away. But I think it's the only practical solution. So people say, ah, but it's not a perfect state.
