How long do you think this operation is going to take?
It depends. We need to find out whether they understand that Israel is no longer a state they can target, while hoping for restraint. Israel is going to defend itself.

Have you achieved your objectives?
Some of the goals were achieved. Right now, I think they understand that the equation has changed.

Will Israel reoccupy Gaza?
The idea is not to reoccupy Gaza. When we left, Hamas used to write on billboards that terror won. Now we are coming back because of terror. Terror doesn't serve the interest of the Palestinians.

It must have been a difficult decision to send Israeli troops into Gaza by land.
Yes, it was a very difficult decision, but right now it looks good.

Are you worried that Hamas will claim victory as Hassan Nasrallah [the leader of Hizbullah] did in Lebanon?
They are [hiding] underground, taken by surprise, asking Hizbullah to do something—nobody [has] helped them. I am sure they will find a place on Al-Jazeera to claim victory. But after what we did there, it is not related to reality.

Are you thinking about stopping the operation?
We have daily meetings asking ourselves whether it is enough or not.

    According to the book of Joshua, Gaza belongs to Israel. Maybe it is time for Israel to take back what is rightfully theirs. May the God of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Samson, David and many others give sound and convincing victory and favor in all they do...the only one and true living God...Jehovah...aka Jesus.

    why we support hand full jews against over q billion muslims ??/ just one country Israel very tiny and 60 muslim country why ?? make the 60 muslims country happy let the jews go seperate ways !!!!! good foriiegn policy should be to make muslims happy becasue they are more muslims then jews !!! right ??"


    Because we don't want to be forced to choose between Islam and extermination. The real goal of radical Islamic fundamentalism, like the basic ideology of the government of Iran, is to convert or exterminate non-Muslims and bring and end to what they consider the evil western way of life and our beliefs in freedom and equality for men and women. It is therefore in our best interests to support the resistance of these tendrils of hate and intolerance as they spread out to infect the world.
