Israel should react disproportionately – FM

Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman says, “We must change the attitude Israel used until today, and respond to the rocket fire against our sovereign territory very strongly and disproportionately, as China or the US would react to similar attacks.”

Speaking during a meeting with his Chinese counterpart in Beiijng, Liberman says he “expects Israel to receive the support of its friends around the world to such a response, as a part of an attitude the whole world needs to adopt for coping with terrorism… an attitude that will be tough and severe and not tolerate provocations like the one we have seen today from Hezbollah.”
