Palestinian Suicide Bomber Threatens Fragile Ceasefire
It's happened again:
At least two people were killed and 37 people were wounded when a major explosion occurred at an intersection near the Sharon Mall in Netanya around 6:30 p.m. Tuesday evening.
Sources close to the prime minister responded to the deadly attack, saying firmly that Israel would react with a heavy hand. If the Palestinian Authority does not deal with Islamic Jihad terrorist, then Israel will, officials told Channel 2.
And how does the PA deal with Islamic Jihad terrorists?
Just last week, PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas met with the leader of Islamic Jihad during Abbas's visit to Damascus.
Abbas lacks either the will or the ability to reign in the Islamic Jihad murderers. On the eve of disengagement, when any sign of weakness has to be avoided with violence if necessary, it's hard to escape the conclusion that Israel will retaliate forcefully to this outrage.
UPDATE: Good news! The ceasefire is still on!
