President Shimon Peres on Sunday 15 Tammuz addressed the security situation and said, “Hamas terrorists aims to kill and injure as many innocent Israelis as possible. We do not wish to harm civilians. A reality in which 5 million of our people, including women and children, are running to bomb shelters is intolerable. We left Gaza of our own freewill, Gaza could have been prosperous and successful but instead it turned to terror. Gaza will be truly free when it breaks free of the shackles of the terrorists organizations.”
President Peres continued and said, “The IDF is fighting terror with determination and dedication. we cannot allow terrorism to drive our citizens into bomb shelters. There can be no compromise with terror.”

“Gaza will be truly free when it breaks free of the shackles of the terrorists organizations.”
Reb Shimon, unfortunately that is not the case. As Hillary Clinton said: As long as the Palestinian Schools continue to teach hate in their textbooks towards Israel, there can never be peace! The Hate that’s taught in the Palestinian Schools has nothing to do with Hamas. Arafat started it & Abbas is continuing it.
Mr Shimon Peres,very shortly you will retired from public office.The whole world will remember you for (1)making peace with a murderer (Arafat in case you forgot in your old age )and (2)removing 10,000 Jews out of Gaza,since then Hamas are firing rockets on over 3 million Israelis. Have happy long life!
” We left Gaza of our own free will , but it turned into a terrorists haven”.. Yes , true Mr. Peres , but is that not a good enough reason to admit Sharon and your error , and a truce will only let the enemy regroup and prepare for the next round….Time to eradicate Hamas so they will not be a threat but that may require admitting that we made an error in destroying the developed areas in Gush Katif and taking them back for good…..
