Members of the Likud Center, families of victims, civil society activists and the Guvara Association issued a statement urging decisive action on all fronts, from Lebanon and the West Bank to the Gaza Strip. The signatories said that the era of intermittent wars is over and that the conflict must continue until their objectives are achieved. They pledged to the dead, border residents and soldiers that past approaches will be changed, noting that the people of Israel have paid a heavy price that should not be in vain.
