“To sit there, without holding the wheel does not interest me. If I receive a mandate to stop the next procession of funerals [by avoiding another war], to bring to a halt the threat posed by the international boycott movement, to fix ties with the US and Europe, to launch negotiations with regional countries and to separate from the Palestinians in the form of two states to stop the ongoing terror wave — then I’ll know that my hands are at the wheel.” (Labour Party leader Isaac Herzog on the possibility of joining the government, via Facebook, 13/05/2016)
