As of Monday morning, Haniyeh’s extended life since Liberman’s appointment has lasted one year, seven months, two days and one hour.

Nevertheless, Liberman continued to issue promises on Monday morning, such as, “By the end of this year, we will destroy all the [terror] tunnels and complete the construction of the [tunnel] barrier.”

“For every mortar fired, we remove some of the Hamas’ critical capabilities,” the defense minister boasted, suggesting “we should lead them to a state of total despair and get them to give up the idea of destroying the State of Israel. The formula would be rehabilitation in exchange for demilitarization.”

Perhaps there should be a separate website to check on that statement as well. Perhaps “Has Hamas Given Up on Destroying Israel Yet?
