	Major Terrorist Attacks in Israel
		November 15: Twelve Israelis were killed and 15 others wounded in Hebron when Palestinian terrorists opened fire and threw grenades at a group of Jewish worshippers and their guards as they were walking home from Sabbath prayers at the Cave of the Patriarchs.
		Israeli authorities reported that the explosive device had been planted ahead of time, with the terrorist possibly detonating it by remote control.
		One of the Palestinian terrorists was killed at the scene; the second, wearing an explosives belt, fled in the direction of a nearby school when he was shot and killed by a soldier and police officer.

	P.O.V. - Promises . Timeline . 1991 - 2001 \| PBS
		Israelis point to Palestinian attacks on Joseph’s tomb (in West Bank town of Nablus) on October 8th, 2000 and Rachel’s tomb (in West Bank town of Bethlehem) as proof that Palestinians do not respect Jewish holy sites and therefore should not be granted sovereignty over the Temple Mount.
		Palestinians term their demonstrations and attacks the "al-Aqsa Intifada," in the name of the mosque on the Haram al-Sharif and state that the Intifada is fueled by frustration over continued Israeli occupation of the majority of the West Bank and parts of the Gaza Strip.
		Since the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, D.C. of September 11th, the Bush administration has shown more of an interest in bringing Israel and the Palestinians to negotiations, greatly in response to requests from Arab and Muslim governments that are supporting the U.S. war against terrorism.

	washingtonpost.com: 60 Israelis on Tourist Visas Detained Since Sept. 11
		Federal agents arrested dozens of the Israeli men and women in late October and early November on charges of working without authorization while in the United States on tourist visas, documents that don't allow their holders to be employed.
		Israeli officials said that the cases involved only the Israelis' apparently illegal employment in the United States and that U.S. officials are not making any claim that any of them were involved in terrorism.
		In one hearing on the Cleveland case, agents said that, among other things, the Israelis are "the subject of an ongoing criminal investigation by the FBI into an individual or company who had agreed to pay living and travel expenses" in exchange for their work at the malls, the judge said in her decision.

		One of the Israelis arrested recently in the United States was Gali Ben-Haim, 22, whose father was killed nine years ago in a terrorist shooting in Gush Katif.
		Later interrogation did suggest possible involvement in terrorist activities and the FBI questioned them about their IDF military service and about the possibility that they were spies.
		Five additional Israelis who worked at the same moving company as Barak and Butbul are still being held in the United States, but two of them will be deported next week.

	UK Report on Responsibility for the September 11 Terrorist Attacks
		The attacks on 11 September 2001 were similar in both their ambition and intended impact to previous attacks undertaken by Usama Bin laden and Al Qaida, and also had features in common.
		In June 2001, in the face of mounting evidence of the Al Qaida threat, the United States warned the Taleban that it had the right to defend itself and that it would hold the régime responsible for attacks against US citizens by terrorists sheltered in Afghanistan.
		The attacks of 11 September 2001 are entirely consistent with the scale and sophistication of the planning which went into the attacks on the East African Embassies and the USS Cole.

	THE SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 TERRORIST ATTACKS ON THE UNITED STATES
		The terrorists practice a fringe form of Islamic extremism that has been rejected by Muslim scholars and the vast majority of Muslim clerics, a fringe movement that perverts the peaceful teaching of Islam.
		The terrorists -- (applause) -- the terrorists are traitors to their own faith, trying, in effect, to hijack Islam itself.
		We will starve terrorists of funding, turn them one against another, drive them from place to place until there is no refuge or no rest, and we will pursue nations that provide aid or safe haven to terrorism.

	CAMERA Update
		The terrorist attacks by Palestinian suicide bombers in Jerusalem and Haifa have prompted coverage marred in many cases by a jarring lack of context in the commentary and questions of journalists.
		In the midst of the Jerusalem attack, against the backdrop of images of stunned and traumatized Israelis attending to the dead and wounded, MSNBC, for example, interviewed Palestinian Ziyad Abu Ziyad.
		On June 8, 2001, a funeral was held in the town of Tulkarm for an activist of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, Ashraf Al-Bardawil, who died while preparing an explosive devise for another terrorist act.

	Foreign Policy In Focus \| Jihad Against Hezbollah (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		A key component of the Bush Doctrine holds that states supporting groups that the U.S. government designates as “terrorist” are as guilty as the terrorists themselves and are therefore legitimate targets for the United States to attack in the name of self-defense.
		By formally designating Hezbollah as a “terrorist organization” and exaggerating the degree of Syrian and Iranian support, the Bush administration and Congress are paving the way for possible U.S. military action against one or both countries some time in the future.
		Therefore, it is politically important to convince Americans that Hezbollah is a terrorist group engaged in “continuous terrorist attacks” that constitute an ongoing threat to the national security interests of the United States and its allies.

	Press Briefing by Scott McClellan
		The terrorist attack that took place over the weekend is just another reminder of the need for a Palestinian Authority that will work to dismantle terrorist organizations.
		That was a horrific attack on innocent men, women and children, and terrorism must not be allowed to stand.
		It's those terrorists that the enemies of a two-state vision, that are enemies of two states living side-by-side in peace.

	Israel's statement at the UN
		Time and again, while Israeli mothers were in excruciating pain, burying their babies and widows mourning their husbands, Sheikh Yassin's gloating face appeared on every TV screen, exalting the murderers as martyrs.
		In comparative terms, the number of innocents deliberately murdered by Palestinian terrorists as of March 2004, is equivalent to 22,499 Russian citizens; 43,136 citizens of the United States, or 58,963 citizens of the EU.
		I have followed Israeli news and events since those days and it is clear to me that nothing has changed in the minds of these terrorists.Strengthen your hand and your hearts for you are just.If these people will not live peaceably on your land then remove them.

	Public Opinion Toward Terrorism
		To capture the organizers of terrorist attacks that killed scores of Israeli civilians, Israeli forces had no choice but to seek out the terrorists.
		Israeli forces have killed women and children, bulldozed entire neighborhoods crushing the people living there, fired missiles into densely populated areas, blocked access of ambulances, and cut off electricity and water to whole towns for long periods.
		Another controversy is whether Palestinian attacks on Israeli civilians are a justifiable means for the Palestinians to put pressure on Israel.
