Israeli Defense Minister: "We Are Fighting on the Frontline of the Free World"
(Daily Mail-UK) Natalie Lisbona - Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant told the Daily Mail: "We are fighting on the frontline of the free world against terrorism....It's hard to bring democracies to fight wars, but once we are in one, we are much stronger because we are fighting to defend our values." "The level of understanding and cooperation between Israel and the UK militarily, and in the field of intelligence, are at a peak and will only go further. We share the same values and interests, especially in the fight against terrorism." Speaking as Israel exchanged more fire with Hizbullah forces in Lebanon, Gallant warned Hizbullah to "ask themselves if they want the same things to happen in Beirut" as is happening in Gaza. "We do not want war, but if we reach a situation where we need to establish our security here, we will not hesitate - just as we did not hesitate in the south."
