>> i think that in the rhetoric and in the heat of campaigns, there are lots of things that are said and i think when they get shaken out, i think we'll find pretty much to not much has changed. there are many people who support a two-state solution. i personally do. and i think that hopefully we can have negotiations between israelis and palestinians in the not-too-distant future, seems remote now. but i think the goal would be to have israelis and palestinians living side by side in paegseace. i'm not worried about what may or may not have been said in campaign rhetoric. there are lots of issues to be tackled. israel and the united states have always been close allies. and i think we will continue to be close allies. >> what you're saying is netanyahu really didn't mean it when he said it 24 hours before the election it was only campaign rhetoric and now that presumably if in fact he does succeed in the coming weeks to form this new coalition
