Proceeding contribution from Malcolm Rifkind (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 19 January 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Gaza.
Gaza
Does the Foreign Secretary share my concern that Hamas, unlike the Israelis, has committed itself only to a six-day ceasefire and has refused to contemplate a permanent ceasefire? Does he agree that if the Hamas group resumes hostilities unilaterally, it will not only show its indifference to the welfare of the Palestinians, but bear the prime responsibility for any further hostilities that follow such an action?
