Mofaz: Israel Will Target Other Hamas Leaders
(Ha'aretz) Amos Harel, Arnon Regular, and Uri Ash - Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz said Tuesday, "If we will continue, in a determined way, with our strikes against Hamas and other terror groups, with the means I outlined, including action against those leaders, we will bring more security to Israeli citizens." The defense chiefs decided Monday to step up targeted attacks, and have decided to go after the entire leadership without waiting for another attack by Hamas, security sources said Tuesday. Public Security Minister Tzachi Hanegbi said Tuesday that every Palestinian terror leader now knows that "there is no immunity.... Everyone is in our sights." IDF Chief of Staff Moshe Ya'alon said Tuesday that Arafat and Hizballah chief Nasrallah's responses to Yassin's death showed that "they understand that their turn is drawing near." Director of Military Intelligence Maj.-Gen. Aharon Ze'evi said he does not believe that the attack on Yassin will lead to a significant rise in terror attacks, Army Radio reported Tuesday.
