Tal Heinrich, a spokesperson for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Friday rejected a United Nations proposal calling for a "humanitarian truce" to be reached in the war between Israel and Hamas, telling Newsmax that a "ceasefire is not negotiable."
The United Nations is scheduled to vote Friday afternoon on a Jordanian-led draft resolution on the crisis that calls for an "immediate, durable, and sustained humanitarian truce." It also demands that all parties comply with international humanitarian law and calls for the "continuous, sufficient and unhindered” provision of essential supplies and services into the Gaza Strip.
"Calling for a ceasefire is basically calling for impunity for terrorists, and we cannot let that happen," Heinrich said. "The correct message that the United Nations of the civilized world should send out is that terrorism is simply a dead end. That is why a ceasefire is just not an option.""We have decided that we will no longer live next to this monster," Heinrich said. "When American parents put their children to bed, they tuck them in.
Meanwhile, reports indicate that Netanyahu is facing domestic pressure to launch the official ground invasion into Gaza while hearing calls from U.S. and Western leaders to consider the casualties that will be involved. Heinrich said there will "definitely be a stage two" of the war with Hamas.
