Yishai: If Sderot Can’t Sleep, Then Neither Will Gaza

The head of the Shas Party, Interior Minister Eli Yishai, made it clear that Operation Pillar of Cloud, currently underway in the Gaza Strip, will not end until Israel can be sure that Israelis can be assured of their safety after terrorists have shot hundreds of rockets into Eretz Yisroel.

“The IDF action was inevitable,” Yishai said. “The state cannot allow over one million citizens to live in bomb shelters. If Sderot cannot sleep, then they won’t sleep in Gaza either.”

Yishai says that he hopes the Operation Pillar of Cloud will ultimately bring calm to the region.
