And they're not about modern politics.

And they predate any modern Palestinian claim.

So we want to have peace with our neighbors, but it must come from a position of strength.

The Prime Minister has made clear that a Palestinian state without security guarantees is not peace.

It's a terror base.

The prime minister has also said that he has spent his career blocking the establishment of a Palestinian state.

So I think we are to read that this move is further facts on the ground to prevent any possibility of an establishment of a Palestinian state.

We've just had a de facto Palestinian state and we've just fought a two-year war because that state became a terrorist state.

We're not going to agree on that.

You've made your position which is not recognised in international law.

And you also, let's also go back to, it wasn't a Palestinian state.

Under international law, under UN resolutions, a Palestinian state is to be established on land in the West Bank, occupied West Bank and in Gaza.

You mentioned Judea and Samaria.

The legal scholars will tell you that that does not override international law, that religious texts are not legal sources under international law, including, most importantly, the Fourth Geneva Convention.

We know because Israel always makes it clear.

So we take it as given that Israel does not accept law.

the overwhelming view of legal scholars that the establishment of legal settlements on occupied land is a violation of international law, including the Geneva Conventions.

Let me tell you about the national Israeli consensus rather than these so-called scholars you're giving me.

The consensus here in Israel, and it's not a question of right versus left, it's the reality.

You know, we just had a vote in our Knesset about it.
