Sunday on ABC’s This Week with George Stephanopoulos, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu accused Hamas of a “double war crime,” saying that to gain sympathy and line up the international community against Israel, the terrorist group “wants to kill civilians on the Israeli really side, and the amazing grotesque and gruesome fact is they want to have as many civilians killed on the Palestinian side.”
Netanyahu said: “Our goal is not to hurt a single individual, a single civilian. What they’re doing is a double war crime. It should be condemned with the most forceful action. They’re like ISIS, they’re like al-Qaeda, they’re like Hezbollah, and the other Iranian proxies. They don’t give a whit about the Palestinians. All they want is more and more civilian deaths.”
