Dan Gillerman Quotations

We are all keeping our fingers crossed and praying and are very elated by every small, however minute, sign of progress. But I think there is still a very long way to go... And hopefully Sharon will survive and come back.

These are steps that could not have happened even two years ago. It would have been unthinkable, suicidal for us even to try them.

Thank God that the fate of Israel and of the Jewish people is not decided in this hall.

We should not be so detached from reality as to treat an advisory opinion as though it were binding, and binding Palestinian obligations as though they were nonexistent. This is not a recipe for progress, it is a sure recipe for failure.

This is not a dramatic development, as Israel also favors a Middle East clean of nuclear weapons, when no threat will exist. The Iranian issue is what the UN is dealing with. The message is clear: Iran poses an immediate and terrifying global threat and it is good that the world has come to its senses.

I think Sharon comes to New York proud of his country.

Resolutions come and go, but this one you could call eternal because it means that every year from now on there will be a commemoration.

It's a Palestinian invention which unfortunately they've exported with great skill all over the world.

This has been probably one of the most tragic events to hit Israel certainly since the assassination of Prime Minister Rabin. Sharon is not just a leader who is very respected, he's also a leader who is very much loved by the people.

They've actually talked the talk. It is now time for them to walk the walk. They have to arrest the terrorists, confiscate the weapons, dismantle the infrastructure of terrorism and seriously embark on a process series of negotiations.
