Israel perhaps has no better spokesman than former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Netanyahu addressed the Foreign Press Association today and defended what he calls "a just war" against Hamas.
He asked the following rhetorical question of the gathered reporters, "What would your country do if for eight years thousands of rockets were launched toward it?"
In this excerpt from his address, he also discussed some of the major issues and controversies surrounding Israel's current war against Hamas. I think you will find it one of the clearest defenses of what Israel is doing today in the Gaza Strip.
