neftali, let me start with you.hris lawrence reporting that hamas is better armed now than it was a few years ago, but i think the israeli government has called up 75,000 reservists. some people i know had to say good-bye to their children. who were getting to go along the border. does a ground invasion seem inevitable to you? >> it's not yet inevitable. we're at a cross roads, but you're right. there are tens of thousands of israeli soldiers ready to go in. the goal of such a entrance would be to stop the continuous import of missiles from egypt to the gaza strip. so the point is, we'd want to dry up the wellp missiles, because they keep shooting the missiles into israel. if we create a buffer zone between egypt and the gaza strip, then the missiles would dry up and stop shooting missiles on us. >> the leader of hamas said today to reporters, he was talking about israel, i'll quote him. if you wanted to launch, meaning a ground invasion, you would have done it. so is he daring them? it would not be good for israel,

. >> is neftali right? there's a wrong side and a right side? >> it'not as simple as that.lack and white as that, unfortunately. on the other side, there are also people who are dying. 20 people have died today. dozens more injured and i suspect overnight, we will see more deaths, so the carnage on both sides doesn't help anybody. >> with what we've seen that is so disturbing, what is next? is there the peace talks somehow out of this, hard to imagine, start again? >> you know, when someone is determined to eliminate you, when they're own charter says they have to wipe out the jewish state, when they shoot thousands of missiles from an area that was vacated, no more jews living in gaza. supposed to become the singapore of the middle east. instead, they turned it into a launch bad for thousands of missiles, there is nothing to talk about. we owe it to ourselves and to the western world. with terror, you don't talk. there's no dialogue. >> i'm sorry, and you don't owe it to the western world. you're putting the western world at greater risk. >> you know, if new jersey was bei

. >> tough words from neftali bennett, former chief of staff to benjamin netanyahu.>> eight minutes past the hour here. susan rice is speaking out, explaining the comments she made after the terrorist attack in benghazi. she initial ly said that the attacks were from protests over that anti-muslim film. she says she was solely relying on intelligence agencies and made it clear at the time that the information was preliminary. she had this to say to one of her loudest critics. >> i have great respect for senator mccain and his service to our country. i always have. and i always will. i do think that some of the statements he made about me have been unfounded, but i look forward to having the opportunity at the appropriate time to discuss all of this with him. >> rice went on to say she believes everyone, especially intelligence officials, were working in good faith to provide the american people the best possible assessment of the events of benghazi. >>> he never campaigned but still won re-election for a tenth term in a landslide. now, just weeks later, illinois cong

neftali bennett joins us now. are you disappointed by the cease-fire?found disappointment. people have been in shelters over a week, showered by a thousand missiles and we expect to defeat terror. we have a terrorist state in gaza. i want to be very clear. what mrs. ashrawi said is false. they have an independent state that we hand over to them in 2005 and days after handing over that state, that everyone hopes would become a cigna for for the middle east, it became the al qaeda of the middle east and began shooting missiles at us. we have taken in the missiles again and again and now enough is enough. but unfortunately we have this premature cease-fire, which i expect will just be very temporary, we'll be back on square one in a month or two and then at that point we'll have to finish the job. >> you have no doubt that you'll be back to square one. you think this is status quo, doesn't really change anything? >> yeah, i mean, the fundamental problem here, anderson, is that hamas, in their charter as determined -- their main goal to wipe out israel, tha
