"Hamas controls Gaza and can prevent any terrorist activity that comes out of it," Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said Wednesday. "Israel will not occupy itself with the question of which organization carried out the attack. Hamas is the address," she added.
Diplomatic sources in Jerusalem said Wednesday: "This is a cynical terror attack. Hamas complains about the closure on the one hand and on the other hand is responsible for an attack on a crossing that supplies fuel and gas to Gaza's residents."
