"In the midst of change. there is one enduring, essential principle that will not change, and that is our commitment to the peace and security of the state of Israel."

"When a government pursuing nuclear capability asks its people to imagine a world without Israel, we must take that threat seriously."

"The fresh approach that I suggest is pursuing a triple-track towards peace between Israel and the Palestinians: a political track, a security track and an economic track."


"Look around this room and you'll understand the success of AIPAC. It is you, the committed members who contribute your time, your talent and your resources to educate your members of Congress."

"Why Israel? Because Israel is a story of a people seizing responsibility for itself, for its history and its destiny. That lesson of responsibility is one of the most powerful Jewish truths."

"The case I press before you now is not a Jewish cause or an Israeli issue. These are challenges to America. Israel's security is synonymous with our own."

"I want to thank you for your essential role in strengthening the shared values and policy between the United States and Israel....For all that you have done and all that you will do, the people of Israel salute you."

"AIPAC is about the American-Israel relationship, because the future of America and Israel are inextricably intertwined."

"No Israeli traveling to L.A. will ever be a stranger in a strange land. Israel's story is part of who I am."

"I cannot help but speak out in behalf of Israel and the Jews because it is in my DNA. And I will continue to be a friend to Israel and the Jewish people...."

"With Alan's urging and utzing, I became the guest speaker at every synagogue in my district, JNF, UJA, AJC-name the Jewish alphabet soup, I was there, with Alan by my side."

"When I was first elected to Congress... I really looked forward to being in a position where I knew I could help fulfill what I believed was not only right for America's interests, but the right thing to do."

"I'm here to tell you that if you want a Portuguese Catholic from the Central Valley of California to lead the charge to protect our relationship with Israel, I won't let you down."
