Netanyahu: "Imagine 80 Percent of Americans under Attack"

(CBS News) As CBS' Bob Schieffer interviewed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on "Face the Nation" on Sunday, warning sirens sounded in Tel Aviv. Netanyahu: "The sirens went off because Hamas has fired rockets on Israel's major city; they're firing rockets on all our cities. I want your audience to imagine what it would be like if all the cities of the United States...from the East Coast to Colorado, 80% of your population, would be in bomb shelters with a minute to a minute and a half red alert warning time to get into those shelters. That's what we're experiencing right now as we speak." "Any country would act to defend itself against this. We are doing exactly what any country would do, what you would do if you were targeted from across the border....We're sorry for any accidental civilian death, but it's Hamas that bears complete responsibility for such civilian casualties."
