Speaking at a government discussion regarding the "calm" negotiated with Hamas, Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni demanded that the "trio" (Livni, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Defense Minister Ehud Barak) convene to decide upon a plan for retaliation for breaches of the "calm."

"The lack of response by Israel makes the arrangement unreasonable and the closure of the passages is unsatisfactory as a response to attacks," she said. "The choice is not between zero activity and re-conquering Gaza," she explained.
