Israeli prime minister Netanyahu made a statement at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting in Jerusalem this morning. He spoke at some length about the kidnapping of three teenage boys and the ongoing search mission to find them. Here is the key part of what he said:
We are focusing on returning the abductees, on finding the kidnappers and on striking at the organization to which they belong. We have unequivocal proof that this is Hamas. We are sharing this proof and information to this effect with several countries. Soon this information will be made public.
This is something that ought to be covered in all American media. Remember, it was less than a month ago that the Palestinian Authority brought Hamas into the government again. At the time we were told by the Palestinians that Hamas was no longer dedicated to the destruction of Israel or to terrorism. Then, within two weeks of joining the government, Hamas arranged for the kidnapping of Israeli teens, the start of a new terror campaign.
Whatever proof the Israelis have of Hamas involvement ought to be made public quickly if it can be done without jeopardizing the search for the teens. The world needs to understand that the Palestinians are now governed by a group that not only opposes peace with Israel but which actively carries out and supports terrorism against children in Israel.
