• Israel launches fresh, major air-sea attack in Gaza after Hamas spurns ceasefire - November 18, 2012
Israel
launched heavy air-sea assaults in Gaza before dawn Sunday, Nov. 18
after bargaining among Washington, Jerusalem, Cairo and Gaza failed to
produce a truce accord. Israel accused Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi
and Turkish premier Tayyip Erdogan of pushing Hamas’s terms to support
its pose as victor. Israel’s war leaders, Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu, Defense Minister Ehud Barak and Foreign Minister Avigdor
Lieberman, countered by intensifying the Gaza offensive – though not
yet on the ground. [Debka.com]
