Bennett blamed the Palestinian terrorists for the mounting death toll in Israel and the Gaza Strip and said that all Hamas needs to do to end the violence is \u201clay down its arms.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s up to Hamas as long as Hamas keeps [attacking Israel] in order to murder Israelis across the state \u2014 by the way, Arabs and Jews alike,\u201d Bennett said. \u201cHamas already murdered two Arab Israelis in the city of Lod, a dad, 52 years old, and his daughter Nadin, 16 years old, Israeli Arabs who were murdered. A Holocaust survivor, 85 years old, was murdered by Hamas, in her wheelchair.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf Hamas thinks they can get away with this, they\u2019re wrong. We\u2019ll hunt down every commander, every post, until we win,\u201d Bennett said. When questioned about dozens of civilians who have died in Gaza from Israeli airstrikes, Bennett said Hamas bears responsibility for those deaths as well.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndeed Hamas killed them. Because when you hide your rockets behind women and children, you are effectively murdering your own people,\u201d Bennett said. \u201cWe will defend ourselves. And if Hamas decides to turn schools into terror bases, and hospitals, in a cowardly manner, into terror bases, they are responsible for murdering their own people.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The host then tried to suggest Israel bore some responsibility for the civilian deaths because, in Gaza, the people lack bomb shelters like most Israelis have. Bennett dismissed the notion as \u201cnonsense.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInstead of taking its money and investing in hospitals, in schools, in building a future for its people, [Hamas is] spending all its money on terror, on trying to kill Israelis. It\u2019s both stupid and wrong. It\u2019s stupid because they are not going to succeed because we\u2019re strong and we are going to defend ourselves. And, you know, I am in the position now, but make no mistake, we are all united, we stand strong united. And there\u2019s one way for this to stop: For Hamas to lay down its arms. And then, it\u2019ll stop,\u201d Bennett said.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about the political implications on the ongoing war with Hamas, Bennett said that all of Israel stands \u201cunited.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we get hundreds of rockets a night on Israel, we all stand united. No one will divide us and we\u2019ll fight back,\u201d Bennett said. \u201cWe\u2019re a democracy. I\u2019m darn proud of that, that we\u2019re a democracy. And, yes, part of democracy is the ability to criticize one another, but we in Israel have a sort of an unspoken rule: When we\u2019re at war with an enemy that wants to annihilate us, we stand together.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bennett also dismissed claims that the ongoing conflict has sprung out of Hamas\u2019 and Palestinians\u2019 lack of a recognized state or any unjust \u201coccupation\u201d by Israel.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe gave Hamas everything, unfortunately,\u201d Bennett said, referring to a 2005 agreement in which Israel completely evacuated the Gaza Strip. \u201cIf they decide that they want to start governing and stop being a failed terror state which is a miserable future for their own people, they\u2019ll find a peaceful neighbor. But if they continue this, it\u2019s just going to get worse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I\u2019m telling every commander, every soldier of Hamas: We\u2019re after you. We\u2019re coming after you. We\u2019re not going to let off. So you might as well stop shooting at Israel,\u201d Bennett said.<\/p>\n<p>The host then questioned Bennett on the possibility of the so-called proposed \u201ctwo-state solution.\u201d\u00a0Bennett rejected such an idea, which would leave Israel sandwiched between Palestinian terrorists in Gaza on one side and Palestinians in Judea and Samaria on the other.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt would create a terror state that does not exist yet in Judea and Samaria and would effectively deem Israel unable to defend ourselves. The whole width of Israel is just about seven or eight miles,\u201d Bennet said. \u201cWe see what they turned Gaza into. No Israeli is going to give up Judea and Samaria and allow them to create a terror state that\u2019s just a few minutes away from my home.
