Gaza operation so far unsuccessful: Israel defence minister

JERUSALEM (AFP) - Defence Minister Amir Peretz has conceded that an Israeli operation in the Gaza Strip had so far failed to yield results, but he insisted the pressure will ultimately release a captured soldier.

"So far there has been no success, but we require patience and restraint," Peretz told the weekly cabinet meeting.

Unsuccessful, but we aren't going to stop bombing the hell out of a civilian population.
