We must see what in the Israeli identity - in the Israeli - we can give to other people rather than speaking so often of taking, expanding territory.
Israelis are the total Jews.
It's not what the rabbis say that defines Jewishness but what we Israelis do every day - our actions and our values.
Jerusalem doesn't belong only to Israelis and Palestinians, Muslims and Jews, but to the world.
For 50 years - that is, for most of my adult life - I worked tirelessly for the two-state solution in the face of countless frustrations, both on the part of the Israeli governments and the Palestinian Authority.
The chances of Israeli science competing with big American science are small. For almost 15 years, we had no competition.
Blowing up buses will not induce the Israelis to move forward, and neither will the killing of Palestinians or the demolition of their homes and their future. All this needs to stop. And we pledge that Jordan will do its utmost to help achieve it.
No matter what's happening in the Middle East - the Arab Spring, et cetera, the economic challenges, high rates of unemployment - the emotional, critical issue is always the Israeli-Palestinian one.
Our response has been, 'Well, let's then make an effort to get the Israelis and the Palestinians to sit around the table.' That hasn't happened. So we only have ourselves to blame for this crisis.
The security and the future of Jordan is hand-in-hand with the future of the Palestinians and the Israelis.
