Defense Minister: "Every Palestinian Rocket Should Carry a Price"


[Ha'aretz] Barak Ravid - Defense Minister Ehud Barak said at a meeting Tuesday in Jerusalem with French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner that every Palestinian rocket fired at Israel from Gaza should carry a price: "We'll announce that every Kassam is an hour of blackout. That way, whoever launches the Kassam knows he's cutting the power." The eight-member security cabinet will meet Sunday to discuss possible Israeli actions to reduce the rocket attacks from Gaza. Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said Tuesday that regardless of which group was firing the rockets, "all of Gaza is in Hamas hands. They are capable of stopping the fire and they are not doing so."
