FM Livni Responds to Today's Terror Attack
Jerusalem, January 29, 2007
Speaking to reporters in Jerusalem on Monday, Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Tzipi Lizni commented on today's terror attack in the south:
"The Israeli government will decide on the necessary steps to be taken in order to give Israeli citizens security. Israel has shown extraordinary restraint in order to give the Palestinians an opportunity to fight terror and stop the attacks. Unfortunately the Palestinians failed to stop them. It is crucial for the international community to put pressure on the Hamas-led government, and the Israeli government will decide upon the necessary steps."
(Communicated by the Foreign Minister's Bureau - Information Department, Israel Foreign Ministry - Jerusalem)
I for one wonder just how Israel is going to react to this latest murder... If they even do anything at all. If they should sit back and do nothing... look out for major hell to go down on the terrorist amongst the Palestinian people in the very near future.
