On CNN's 'This Morning,' IDF Spokesman Maj. Doron Spielman addressed the US frustration over ceasefires in the Israel-Hezbollah conflict, stating that while Hezbollah has fired thousands of rockets for a year with no calls for a ceasefire, now that Israel is defending its civilians, a ceasefire is demanded.
On Saturday’s “CNN This Morning,” IDF Spokesman Maj. Doron Spielman responded to frustration from the White House with Israel over ceasefires by stating that “for an entire year, Hezbollah has been firing rockets, over 9,000 rockets, missiles, and killer drones and no one talked about a ceasefire. Now that Israel ’s actually taking the assertion to try to protect its civilians, we’re calling for a ceasefire.
Spielman responded, “Israel carried out this attack because, as we’ve said from the beginning, Hezbollah is what stands in the way of Israeli civilians moving north and peace in the entire northern part of the country. Israel clearly felt that Nasrallah is a major target. … We work very closely with the United States. They’re our greatest ally, but Israel, at the end of the day, has independence to try to fulfill its military objectives in order to protect its own people.
