NAZARETH (PIC)– Israeli deputy-premier Shaul Mofaz has urged his occupation government to resume assassination of Hamas political leaders and those responsible for unleashing missiles at Israeli settlements.
Mofaz’s bloody invitation came in an interview with the Israeli TV where he also threatened the Palestinians of an “intensive land blitz” on the Gaza Strip so as to let them “pay the price of attacking Israeli colonies” in the Negev occupied since 1948.
Furthermore Mofaz who served as a war minister under the coma-stricken former Israeli premier Ariel Sharon affirmed that aerial bombarding was no longer effective as the bank of targets in Gaza Strip ended.
Thus he added “We will resort to land offensives in order to deter the Palestinians and let them pay a high price”.
But high-ranking IOF officers and Israeli politicians warned that any land invasion of the Strip would have its toll on the soldiers’ lives as Israeli intelligence reports confirmed that Palestinian fighters had prepared themselves very well for any IOF land blitz.
Earlier Palestinian resistance factions headed by Hamas Movement had threatened to teach the IOF troops in Gaza a “severe lesson” if they indeed carried out any military adventure in the Strip.
Israeli government “blood-thirsty”:
For his part Arab Knesset (Israeli parliament) member Mohammed Baraka condemned Israel’s rejection of Palestinian calls for calm describing Olmert government as “blood-thirsty” and that Olmert’s talks on peace as “meaningless”.
“What does Olmert’s government rejection of the calm mean? It simply means a call to continue killing innocent Palestinians wherever they are and to destroy more Palestinian homes” Baraka charged.
“Such Israeli stands indeed unmask the real image of the Israeli occupation government and prove that it wasn’t concerned with achieving peace and that it was evading all peace proposals exactly as former Israeli governments did in the past” the legislator asserted.
