Halevy spoke of the Islamic terror, saying it is “the main
problem of the world today."
"We are in the middle of World War Three, and I see no end to it," he
said.
Halevy said that he had spoken recently with a Russian
official who disagreed with his prediction regarding the growing Muslim
population in Europe.
'Can yesterday's
devil become today's partner?'
The former head of the Mossad also addressed
the issue of Hamas,
saying it is "a young movement, only 19 years-old, and it is a ruthless
enemy of Israel. The success of the defense establishment in fighting
this organization is immense. Since the disengagement Hamas is not
working against Israel, not because it likes Israel but because it's
acting against its own interests."
Halevy
said he was pondering over whether Hamas’ proposal for a
long-term
Hudna (ceasefire) should be reexamined: "Despite it all, in a changing
world like ours, we to think differently, and I suggest we assess the
long-term Hudna proposal. If the Hudna is for many years, that means
it's no longer a ceasefire but a truce. That begs the question
– can
yesterday's devil become today's partner?"
He said he does not believe Israel should insist that
Hamas recognize Israel. "We don't need its recognition. It needs
Israel's recognition more."
