"In an interview on Israeli television, the country's foreign minister Tzipi Livni said that another offensive against Hamas, inside the Gaza Strip, was possible if the smuggling of weapons through tunnels under the strip, is not halted. This comes just one day after Press TV reported that Israeli F-16 fighter jets once again began to fly over the Strip.
"We embarked on the operation in order to bring quiet [to Southern Israel]- now there is quiet, and to stop the firing of rockets - now the firing has stopped. As far as I am concerned, we could hit Hamas with another military blow. The smuggling of weapons into Gaza is the same as firing onto Israel, and the world sees that as well"
