Hamas not only killed Israelis. Hamas not only torpedoed negotiated U.N. supported cease-fire, humanitarian cease-fire, but they also destroyed the chances of bringing immediate and concrete relief to the people of Gaza.
the goal remains the same, to stop those rockets coming in on Israeli cities and to prevent Hamas terrorists from infiltrating across the border through those tunnels, trying to kill our people.
Our enemy are the Hamas terrorists who have shot over the last three weeks more than 3,000 rockets into Israel, trying to kill our citizens.
We will agree, and we will only agree to a temporary cease-fire in Gaza for the release of our hostages.
