00:00 "We have a long war ahead.
00:02 It is not a day, it is not a week, and it is not two weeks.
00:05 It will take time.
00:07 The reason is simple.
00:09 Whoever killed or kidnapped more than 1,500 Israeli citizens, children, women, with all
00:18 the harsh deportations that there were, cannot be cleaned up.
00:23 At the end of this campaign, Hamas will not be a military-government organization in Gaza,
00:30 there will be no security threat from the Gaza Strip to Israel, and Israel will have complete
00:35 freedom of action to act in any situation in which there is a threat in the Gaza Strip.
00:41 It is not like anything else."
