If Israel withdraws, the door to peace opens. If they try unilateral separation-meaning the deepening of the economic closure, then there will be no stopping an intifida the likes of which they have not seen . . . There will be no settlers no matter what pressure from Israel and no matter what pressure from the United States. There is only one way. It's an operation of pressure upon the Palestinian Leadership until it is ready to accept what is offered and until it is ready to retreat from Palestinian principles.
Dialogue can be by words or by bullets and fire.
This is transition to state terrorism in an official and announced manner with the knowledge of the military and political leadership in Israel. They believe they can terrorize our people, extinguishing its intifada, but not just against our innocent citizens, but also against the pillars of our Authority, assassinating senior Palestinian officers. The child who was killed yesterday. That was assassination. Every Palestinian in the homeland-from Gaza to Jenin is subject daily to assassination.
