Netanyahu to Nasrallah: Don't Count on a Civil War in Israel

(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told the Israeli Cabinet on Sunday: "I heard the remarks by Hizbullah [leader Nasrallah]...when he...said with satisfaction that a civil war in Israel is approaching. Therefore, I say to Nasrallah: Don't count on a civil war. It will not happen." "It will not happen because we are indeed brothers. It will not happen because what Nasrallah does not understand is that we are a living democracy. In a democracy, there are differences of opinion and debates....There will be no civil war because we always remember that we have fought shoulder-to-shoulder to defend our state and build our land." "At this opportunity, I am pleased to disappoint our enemies and also reassure our friends: Israel is, and will remain, a strong, vibrant and independent democracy."
