Ex-Mossad Chief Remarks Prove Victory: Hamas

Palestinian faction Hamas said Friday that recent remarks by the former director of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency – concerning the failure of Israel's military onslaught on the Gaza Strip – had confirmed that the Palestinian resistance had won last summer's conflict.

Palestinian faction Hamas said Friday that recent remarks by the former director of Israel's Mossad intelligence agency – concerning the failure of Israel's military onslaught on the Gaza Strip – had confirmed that the Palestinian resistance had won last summer's conflict.



Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said Meir Dagan's remarks constituted proof of Israel's defeat.



"Israel's attempts to play down its defeat by the resistance have fallen short," Abu Zuhri said in a statement.



Quoted on Friday by Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth, Dagan criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, especially in terms of last month's conflict.



"What did we achieve?" Dagan was "ed by the paper as asking. "Nothing except a ceasefire that will be broken whenever Hamas decides."



Netanyahu, he said, had handled things the wrong way, adding that the Israeli premier was only interested in photo ops.



"They say Netanyahu acted responsibly," he said. "Responsibly? It was a cover-up for doing nothing. There was no thought process for what they wanted to achieve with this operation."



Israel waged a devastating 51-day operation against the Gaza Strip last July and August, one that left around 2,160 Palestinians dead and over 11,000 others injured.



The conflict finally ended with a cease-fire deal signed in Cairo in late August.
