Benjamin Netanyahu: Don’t blame terror attacks against Israelis on the settlements

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called on the international community not to blame Palestinian terror attacks against Israel on settlement building or its actions in the West Bank.

 

“Just like the French are not guilty, we are not guilty of the terrorism that has been directed at us,” Netanyahu wrote on his Facebook page on Saturday night.

 

“The terrorists are the ones who are guilty of terrorism, not ‘the territories’ and not ‘the settlements’ and not anything else,” he wrote.

 

What is at play here is the terrorists deep desire to destroy Israel, Netanyahu said.

 

This desire “sustains the conflict and drives the murderous attacks against us,” Netanyahu said.
