Netanyahu: With Hamas Rejection, "No Choice" but to Expand Gaza Assault 
------------------------------------------------------------------------


 
In response to Hamas' rejection of the Egyptian ceasefire plan, Israeli
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he now has no choice but to
expand the attack on Gaza.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu: "It would have been
preferable to have solved this diplomatically, and this is what we tried
to do when we accepted the Egyptian proposal for a ceasefire, but Hamas
leaves us no choice but to expand and intensify the campaign against
it."
