Netanyahu tells Abbas Israel shocked by act of 'heinous terror'

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu phoned Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas Friday afternoon in the wake of the terror attack in Duma and said that Israel was shocked by the act of “heinous terror.”

“We must fight together against terror, regardless of the side it comes from,” he said. He told Abbas that he directed the security services to use all means at its disposal to locate the murderers of the Palestinian baby, Ali Dawabsha.

After some 13 months of not speaking, this was the second time in a month that the two men spoke. Netanyahu called Abbas earlier this month to send greetings on the occasion of Id al-Fitr.

  1. Israeli police have opened an investigation into threats on social media against president Reuven Rivlin following his condemnation of "Jewish terrorism" after a firebombing killed a Palestinian child, a presidential spokesman said today....

    Rivlin had written a Facebook post following Friday's arson attack on a Palestinian family's home in the West Bank village of Duma by suspected Jewish extremists.

    The attack killed 18-month-old Ali Saad Dawabsha and left his parents and four-year-old brother critically wounded.

    "More than shame, I feel pain," Rivlin wrote in Arabic and Hebrew. "The pain over the murder of a little baby. The pain over my people choosing the path of terrorism and losing their humanity.

    "Their path is not the path of the State of Israel and is not the path of the Jewish people. Unfortunately, it seems that so far we've dealt with the phenomenon of Jewish terrorism limply," he wrote, calling for concrete measures against such extremists.

    Rivlin's post evoked a wave of more than 2,000 comments, some positive but others attacking him and recalling Israelis killed by Palestinians..................http://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/middle-east/Israel-president-threatened-over-Jewish-terrorism-comment/articleshow/48331903.cms
