This is murderous terrorism that is fueled by systematic incitement in the PA, incitement that receives backing and support from Iran.".

""We support the wounded man and his family, and thank the fighter who acted decisively and prevented another murder at the last minute. The State of Israel must act with a strong hand not only against the terrorists on the ground, but also against the PA's axis of incitement and terror.".
