Bennett: 'Only a severe response' will stop rocket fire from Gaza

Economic Minister and Security Cabinet member Naftali Bennett addressed renewed rocket fire from Gaza during a ceasefire Tuesday afternoon saying that, "When we hold peace talks with a terrorist organization we get more terror. Hamas thinks that rocket fire helps them reach their goals in talks and so they fire even during a ceasefire. Rockets are not an accident as far as we're concerned."

 

Bennett added that, "Only a severe response, like any sovereign nation responds to rocket fire on its territory, will be able to stop the deterioration (of the situation). Sooner or later, Israel will need to subdue Hamas, there's no way to avoid it."
