Haneyya: Netanyahu’s speech arrogant

(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - Gaza prime minister Ismail Haneyya has described as “arrogant” the speech delivered by Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu at the United Nations.He said in a terse statement on Saturday that Netanyahu’s speech was a “desperate” attempt to change the Israeli occupation into a “victim” and to defend the Gaza blockade.Netanyahu’s address would not affect the growing international sympathy with the Palestinian people and their just cause, the premier concluded.In an earlier statement, Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said that Netanyahu’s speech was full of lies and tried to twist facts.He told the PIC that focusing on captured Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit was an attempt to ignore the fact that 7000 Palestinians were held captives by the Israeli occupation.Abu Zuhri said that Shalit would return to his family when the Palestinian prisoners return to their families./129
