"You must make sure that you will never live in peace as long as you continue to make conspiracies, fueling wars, spreading evil in the world, creating terrorist organizations," he continued.
"You will never know the peace as long as you are occupying and jailing another nation, so stop your silly dreams, and start thinking of reality."
The Ministry of Construction and Housing said that after investigating the issue, it has found that "at no point were its computers breached."
"We have checked the post… and found that this is not information that originated in the Ministry of Construction and Housing," the authority said.
The Association for Better Housing said that it has blocked the data and has launched an investigation. An initial inquiry found that the released files in fact contain homeowner associations' addresses and invoices.
