- Israeli Defense Minister: War with Gaza is a Matter of When, Not If

Israel’s Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman on Monday said Israel’s next round of fighting with the Palestinian Hamas movement in the Gaza Strip was a “matter of when, not if.”
–
He made the remarks after discussing the current security situation on the southern border with Israel’s Chief of Staff Gadi Eisenkot and other security officials at the Gaza Division headquarters on the Reim Military Base.
–
“Regarding Gaza, the question we should ask is not ‘whether another round of fighting will start’, but ‘when will it start’. I’m sure we’ll do what we need to do in the best possible way,” said Lieberman. He stressed that the Israeli army is prepared and knows what should be done.
–
The minister also responded to recent criticism accusing him of weakness and saying Israeli forces should have kept up its attacks on the Gaza-ruling Hamas in light of the repeated rocket and mortar attacks.
–
“We are implementing a responsible and forceful security policy. A responsible security policy is not a response, not to online commentators, not to newspaper headlines and not to public opinion.”
