Defense Minister Blames Duma Arson Attack for Recent Arab Terror Attacks


dumaDefense Minister Moshe Ya’alon stated that despite the fact that Arab terror attacks occurred prior to the fatal arson attack in the PA (Palestinian Authority) village of Duma in the Shechem region, recent Arab terrorism is a response to that attack. He explained that the attack which left an infant and his father burned to death has increased the motivation for terrorists to carry out an attack. Despite the defense minister’s statements, Israel Police investigators have yet to determine that Jews perpetrated the attack, as many believe to be the case.

Ya’alon was traveling to areas in Yehuda and Shomron on Tuesday, 26 Menachem Av, briefed on IDF activities in those areas. The minister then visited the Yehuda Brigade Command, where senior commander briefed him on today’s situation in that area. Taking part in the ministerial visit were Central District Commander Major-General Roni Numa, Chief of Operations Major-General Nitzan Alon, Division Commander Brigadier-General Lior Carmeli, and other senior officers.

  1. What an irresponsible accusation! This harken’s back to the “Blood libel” days. A Christian goes ahead and murders a Christian child, accuse the Jews of using their blood for baking Matzohs. The average dumb peasant believes the lie. They all go on a rampage and massacre as many Jews as they can find!
    Here we have a case where 2 Arab clans got into a fight. One side takes retribution, blames the Jews and this Gullible fool, Ya’alon has the nerve to blame the Jews???! HE is a danger to the citizens of Israel and should be fired immediately! These left wing pacifist atheist’s will have us all killed! And these idiots are concerned about Iran??? They will self distruct long before Iran gets a nuclear bomb!

  2. Just like we blamed it on a film. They don’t need an excuse to attack Jews they’ve been doing it since the 1920s
    Chevron massacre

  3. mendoza, it is not okay to refer to terrorists as “animals”. Actual animals never commit such horrible crimes. In fact, bunnies are cuddly, gentle little creatures, and they’re animals. Are you trying to compare good animals to evil people?
