Prime Minister Netanyahu to UN Secy.-Gen. Ban Ki-moon: Help Return Our Soldiers and Citizens Home

(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon in Jerusalem on Tuesday: "Hamas is cruelly and illegally holding the remains of our soldiers and holding our citizens. I ask you to use your standing to help return home these soldiers and these citizens." "Hamas is a terrorist organization. Hamas has genocidal aims. It doesn't merely practice terrorism. It says openly that its goal is to wipe off from the face of the earth a member state of the United Nations. I hope the UN will highlight Hamas' crimes and understand that our security measures are aimed only at keeping our citizens safe from this threat and that we use judicious force in this regard. I don't know what any other country, faced with thousands of rockets and missiles aimed at its citizens, at its children, would do differently."
