Israel Seeking Diplomatic Means to End Syria's Sponsorship of Palestinian Terror Groups
(Ynet News) Ronny Sofer - Israel will seek diplomatic means to end Syria's sway over Palestinian terror groups which it harbors in Damascus, Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said Tuesday in a meeting with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Richard Jones. Shalom presented intelligence data showing the high motivation pervading terror groups to wage attacks against Israel from the West Bank and Gaza. He said a large part of the instructions for Monday's terror attack were relayed from Damascus. "Israel has a right to protect its residents in every way and America will support every one of its moves," Jones said. "We will do whatever is possible to see that the PA assumes responsibility for the situation. By failing to do so, it harms the Palestinian people."
