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 not live like that any longer. We saw what they're capable of doing. We saw the sort of gruesome, terrible, horrific violence they inflicted upon us. We refuse to live with that anymore sort of neighbor anymore. And we are now…
We understood the need to give a humanitarian relief to the people of Gaza who we don't see as our enemy.
Frankly, we don't know. Israel is ready for an unconditional extension of the cease-fire. We've said so all along.
