Netanyahu: Borders Must Reflect 'Dramatic' Changes From 1967

Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress, in full.




Netanyahu's best point out of many wonderful ones was when he said, "Courageous Arab protesters are now struggling to secure these very same rights for their peoples, for their societies. We're proud that over one million Arab citizens of Israel have been enjoying these rights for decades. Of the 300 million Arabs in the Middle East and North Africa, only Israel’s Arab citizens enjoy absolute democratic rights. I want you to stop for a second and think about that. Of those 300 million Arabs, less than one-half of one percent are truly free, and they're all citizens of Israel!


"The border will be different than the one that existed on June 4, 1967. Israel will not return to the indefensible lines of 1967."
