War on Hamas is 'war of the free world': Israeli FM to EU lawmakers

Description

Speaking to MEPs in Brussels, Israel's Foreign Minister Eli Cohen says his country's war with Hamas is "not just the war of the state of Israel," but concerns the "free world". Cohen's address comes more than a month after Hamas' deadly attack on Israel, in which at least 1,400 people were killed. In retribution for the attack, Israeli forces have been conducting air and ground raids in Gaza, where the Hamas-run health ministry says more than 10,500 people have died. SOUNDBITE
