    Exchange With Reporters in Jerusalem
    October 28, 1994

    Holocaust Memorial

        Q. Mr. President, Voice of Israel, live--a word if I may. What did
    you put in writing in the guestbook, sir? May I bother you to approach
    the mike, sir, please?
        The President. I wrote that today we are one step closer to the time
    when the people of Israel can live together in peace with all of your
    neighbors, the time when people of Israel will never again suffer death
    and destruction--the events that are memorialized here--simply because
    of their race or their faith, and may God let it come to pass.

    President's Visit

        Q. Mr. President, how would you summarize your visit in Israel?
        The President. It was a wonderful visit. I was deeply touched by the
    reception of the people, grateful for the opportunity to address the
    Knesset. I leave redoubled in the support of the American people for the
    people of Israel

    and redoubled in my determination to continue until we have a
    comprehensive peace.
        Q. What will be your message to your troops in Kuwait, sir?
        The President. I'm very proud of them.
