Zionist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatened on Tuesday that if Palestinian Resistance Movement, Hamas, refuses to accept an Egyptian ceasefire plan.

“If Hamas doesn’t accept the ceasefire proposal — and that’s how it seems at this point in time — Israel will have all the international legitimacy to broaden its military activity (in Gaza) in order to achieve the necessary quiet,” Netanyahu said.

He was speaking just hours after the Israeli security cabinet voted in favor of accepting an Egyptian truce proposal for a 0600 GMT ceasefire that was rejected by Hamas.

But it also warned it would respond “with force” to any further rocket fire.

Speaking at a joint news conference in Tel Aviv with visiting German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier, Netanyahu said Israel wanted to see “the demilitarization” of Gaza.

“We responded positively to the Egyptian proposal to give a chance to deal with the demilitarization of Gaza from missiles, rockets and tunnels,” he said.

The resistance voiced rejection to the initiative, considering it as surrender to the enemy, as it repeated its position that demands it has made must be met before it lays down its weapons.

Berlin’s top diplomat also urged Hamas to accept Cairo’s proposal.
“I request that the leaders of the Gaza Strip stick to the ceasefire,” he said.

“Gaza cannot always remain Hamas’s weapons repository… (that) means damage not only for the people of Israel, but for the people in Gaza itself who are held hostage by Hamas,” he charged.
