Israel discussed its planned war on Gaza with the Palestinian leadership and Egypt ahead of time, offering to hand them control of the strip if it defeated Hamas, U.S. documents released Sunday by WikiLeaks showed.

The attempt to coordinate its devastating offensive against Gaza’s Islamist rulers was revealed by Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, whose remarks were included in a telegram sent in June 2009 by then-Deputy U.S. Ambassador Luis Moreno.
