Netanyahu: With or Without Deal, We'll Push Hizbullah Back to Litani River
(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said during a visit to the Lebanon border on Sunday: "With or without an agreement, the key to returning our residents in the north safely to their homes is to distance Hizbullah beyond the Litani [River], strike at any attempt to rearm itself, and respond vigorously to any action against us." "Our heroic reservists have an immense part in the achievements we have made. They are putting their lives on hold, leaving their wives and children, and sometimes losing jobs. They are losing friends. But I sat with them just now and I was greatly impressed. One must see their readiness and their fighting spirit....One of the brigade commanders told me: 'We have the privilege to defend our country. We are making history.'"
