Netanyahu: Government's consent to ceasefire inconceivable
Opposition leader slams government's decision to agree to ceasefire
with Gaza militants, says Israel achieved nothing but Hamas' future
rearmament
Attila Somfalvi
Opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu (Likud) harshly criticized the
government decision to declare a temporary ceasefire with Hamas
Thursday, saying it in fact agreed to allow the militant group to
rearm.
The Egyptian-brokered ceasefire between Israel and the Gaza militias
came into effect on 6:00 am Thursday morning.

Hamas warns of harsh response if truce is violated  / Ali Waked
Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, group's military wing, cautions Israel
of breaching ceasefire, say any violation will prompt 'painful
response'
Full story
"I can understand the disappointment Gilad Shalit's family must feel.
I wouldn't have agreed to this make-believe ceasefire, but since the
government obviously did, one has to wonder why it didn't prerequisite
his release. It's inconceivable," said Netanyahu.
"I would like to know, what did we achieve here exactly? Hamas will
not stop rearming – (Hamas politburo chief) Khaled Mashaal said they
wouldn't and the defense establishment already said the truce will be
fragile.
"We didn't get Gilad back. We got nothing. The government is allowing
Hamas to go about rearming before the next round of terror attacks,"
he said.
Why do you think the government agreed to the ceasefire?
"The government agreed because it has a policy of weakness. It
promotes passiveness and the lack of action characteristic of many of
the governments in Israeli history. This is evident of a lack of
leadership.
"Israel has exercised more forces for lesser things. I don't think
this is a matter of different political views – this is a matter of
impotence... the prime minister and the defense minister are blaming
each other for putting politics first. This is an incompetent
government faced with a clear security threat and doing absolutely
nothing about it," he said.
Israel, he added, has no use for a temporary truce: "We want the
children of Sderot to sleep peacefully for many years to come. We have
no choice but to act. We have to stop being passive and work towards
toppling Hamas' rule (in Gaza).
"Israel cannot afford to have an Iranian enclave, which has no
intention of recognizing our right to exist. This zealous enclave will
not change its nature. The next conflict is underway."
Why do you oppose the ceasefire? What is the danger here?
"You tell me. What can this artificial truce possibly achieve? Will
Hamas dismantle its lathes? It will only use this time to bring more
Qassam rockets and Grad rockets into the Strip. There in no doubt
about it.
"In the next conflict we will find ourselves facing deadlier weapons
and we'll pay a heavier price. We have to have faith in our own
military strength and we have to utilize it to bring Hamas down.
Anything else is escapism."
And you’re the only one in the government who sees these realities?
"There are more than a few voices criticizing the ceasefire. Those
ministers have a way out – they can get up and leave. The government
has lost the ability to care for its citizens… it has no solutions to
offer and that alone should have made it resign."
Do you feel that Prime Minister Ehud Olmert is distracted by his own
legal troubles ?
"I've been saying that the government isn't functioning even before
the latest events. The government has demonstrated its incompetence by
agreeing to this ceasefire," said Netanyahu.
"If Hamas has grown weaker, why allow it to become strong again? The
(government) is allowing an Iranian sponsored, Hizbullah-like
framework to be established on the outskirts of Ashkelon. It will end
up costing us dearly."

 Netanyahu: Government's consent to ceasefire inconceivable
questo è l'erede di quelli che fanno la pace con l'Egitto (e invadono
2 volte il Libano).
