Israel has a right to defend itself against terrorist attacks, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was quoted as saying Tuesday, in her first remarks at the State Department.
Reuters quoted her as telling press, “The [Palestinian] rocket barrages which are getting closer and closer to populated areas [in Israel] cannot go unanswered.”
“It is regrettable that the Hamas leadership apparently believes that it is in their interest to provoke the right of self-defense instead of building a better future for the people of Gaza,” she said.
