Operation Protective Edge Hillary Clinton: Hamas responsible for civilian deaths in Gaza
Former US secretary of state and likely 2016 presidential candidate Hillary Clinton voiced support for Israel's operation in Gaza, saying in an interview with The Atlantic published on Sunday, "I think Israel did what it had to do to respond to the rockets.”
Clinton told The Atlantic's Jeffrey Goldberg that "Israel has a right to defend itself. The steps Hamas has taken to embed rockets and command-and-control facilities and tunnel entrances in civilian areas, this makes a response by Israel difficult.”
