Benjamin Netanyahu made the announcement in a speech to parliament. He left a gathering of senior security officials to give the speech, then returned to the security discussions.
“We will use and not hesitate to use all means at our disposal to restore calm,” he said. “I’m sure the steps we will take will let the other side know that terror doesn’t pay.”
“We are focused on our mission, to fight the inciters and the murderers,” the prime minister said.
“Israel is strong, and it will be here forever, whether our enemies like it or not,” Netanyahu said.
The premier added that the “current wave of terrorism is same that we saw 14 years ago” during the Second Intifada.
Netanyahu called on Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to “stop lying, and stop inciting.”
“You must fight extremism,” Netanyahu said, directing his remarks to Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas
Earlier Wednesday, a pair of stabbing and shooting attacks in Jerusalem killed three Israelis. Some eight Israelis have died in a month of Israeli-Palestinian unrest.
Every sheik/cleric is calling for war so Israel is facing a real WAR,and must act like you are supposed to when under attack
“Israel is strong, and it will be here forever, whether our enemies like it or not,” Netanyahu said.
Where is Hashem here? Bibi, you are not strong and neither is Israel. There is a strong possibility the Palestinians may get the UN to go against you…sooner or later…then you will see that only Hashem can protect you.
‘Aggressive Steps’ means taking the terrorists directly to an Israeli hospital without delay. Does anybody still believe Netanyahu who has been threatening and warning for months? The Arabs definitely don’t, but do any Jew still believe him? Only when a relative or friend of his or Rivlin or Yaalon would get wounded can we expect something to start being done. In the meantime, the only option is Tehillim.
How about waiting for a high level meeting of the PA/PLO in Ramallah, and sending them back to the Stone Age? The incitement is coming from Abbas, and is supported by all those do-gooders (Obama/Kerry, EU, UN, etc.) who are supplying them with “humanitarian” aid. Eliminate the terrorists, even those wearing business suits and khaffiyes.
Bibis a man full of…..um… strong words
America could use a strong leader like him.
Bibi & Trump will make good partners and help secure Israel. I am quite sure Trump won’t throw us under the bus.
Some other ideas.
The government should pick certain regions and industries, and disallow the hiring of Arab workers. Let Abbas y”sh worry about them. All hires must be Israeli Jews.
Rescind the voting rights for Israeli Arabs.
Prosecute the Arab MK’s for their supportive role in this intifada. Jail them, or ship their decapitated corpses back to Abbas as a gift.
The sheiks/imams preaching violence should be taken out and shot. Their funerals should be carpet bombed. They must know that every attempted murder of a Jew will result in the demise of hundreds of theirs. They are not civilized enough to understand any other language. To H*ll with the UN.
Bibi is all talk and no action.
