And, indeed, at Bar Ilan University in 2009, Netanyahu declared his willingness to accept the creation of a Palestinian state, on the condition that it be demilitarized and that the Palestinians recognize Israel as the homeland of the Jewish people. This is no longer the case: two days before the election, Netanyahu explicitly vowed that his government would never allow Palestinian statehood.
前提之一是双方都接受两国方案为妥协性协议的根本基础。此外，事实上内塔尼亚胡2009年在巴伊兰大学（Bar Ilan University）的演讲中曾宣称他愿意接受巴勒斯坦建国，条件是巴勒斯坦去军事化并且承认以色列为犹太人的故乡。如今已不再如此：选举前两天，内塔尼亚胡信誓旦旦地宣称他的政府决不允许巴勒斯坦建国。
