Livni slams government for failing to ‘deliver security for Israelis’
Opposition leader MK Tzipi Livni slams the government for failing to bring the Gaza escalation to a decisive conclusion and refusing to engage in peace efforts.
“It’s clear today that this government can’t deliver security for Israelis, especially not residents of the south,” she says. “The current government of Israel seems to prefer a state of Hamastan right next to the residents of the south, which explains why it prevented every possibility for dialog with moderates” on the Palestinian side.
