Ariel Sharon Accord Quotations

In my talks with the prime minister I discovered that he's not prepared to abandon the Camp David ideas, and I cannot be a partner to such a policy, ... Just imagine and think how much graver our situation would be if the old city of Jerusalem were for the most part handed over to the Palestinians according to the Camp David ideas.

We have no interest to hurt innocent civilians and are always sorry about civilians that are hurt but this action, according to me, is one of our biggest successes, and of course obliges us to be on full state of alertness,

I was elected to be the prime minister by a majority of two-thirds. I will not let party trickery dictate policy, ... I am responsible for what happens, and I must create policy according to decisions I made.

It is in Israel's interest not to govern the Palestinians, but for the Palestinians to govern themselves, ... the opportunity to renew direct negotiations according to the steps of the road map.

We will consider the situation only according to the results on the ground, and not according to statements and promises,
