Netanyahu Demands End Of ‘Double-Talk’

Prime Minister Netanyahu demands a thorough condemnation by the Palestinian Authority of the Itamar massacre and an end to its ”double-talk.” President Shimon Peres said, “There are no words of consolation in the face of this devastation. “

I would like to express my deep outrage, outrage which is certainly felt by every Israeli over the murder of a young family – father, mother, eleven-year-old boy, four-year-old-boy and four-month-old girl, said the Prime Minister after the terrorist attack at Itamar, in Samaria."

The Prime Minister continued, “One of the girls saw her parents and siblings stabbed to death.  The family was brutally murdered in their sleep on the Sabbath…

“I have noticed that several countries that always hasten to the UN Security Council in order to condemn Israel, the state of the Jews, for planning a house in some locality, or for laying some tiles somewhere have been dilatory in sharply condemning the murder of Jewish infants. I expect them to issue such condemnations immediately, without balances, without understandings, without justifications…

"I am disappointed by the weak and mumbled statements. This is not how one condemns terrorism. This is not how one fights terrorism.” 

President Peres stated, "This is one of the most difficult and despicable events that we have seen - the murder of parents and their young children including a three-year old and [newly-born] baby, on the Sabbath. It indicates a loss of humanity. There is no religion in the world or any faith that allows these kinds of horrible acts.

“There are no words of consolation in the face of this devastation. Our hearts are with the orphans and with the community of Itamar during this extremely difficult time.  I am sure that the security forces will make every possible effort in order to capture the murderers and bring them to the appropriate justice."
