EXCERPT:
BIDEN: “I cannot prove what I'm about to say, but I believe one of the reasons why Hamas struck when they did was they knew that I was working very closely with the Saudis, and others in the region to bring peace to the region by having recognition of Israel and Israel's right to exist. You may recall when we did the G-20 a little while ago, I was able to get a resolution -- a statement passed through there saying we're going to build a railroad from Riyadh all the way through the Middle East into Saudi Arabia, Israel, et cetera, and all the way up to Europe -- not the -- not the railroad but underground pipeline and then railroad. The whole idea is there's overwhelming interest and I think most Arab nations know it and coordinating with one another to change the dynamic in their region for a longer term peace.”
