Marking the three-year anniversary of the Israeli outrageous war against the Gaza strip in 2008, Israeli Forces Chief of Staff Benny Gantz dubbed the operation “excellent” and indicated that “Second round of fighting in Gaza is not a matter of choice for Israel; it must be initiated by Israel and must be swift and painful,” Haaretz reported.
