Israel Police Challenge U.S. "Terror" Findings
(AFP) Israeli police on Thursday challenged Washington's inclusion of Jewish extremist attacks on Palestinians in a global terror report, saying such incidents could not be likened to militant attacks. For the first time, the State Department's 2013 Country Reports on Terrorism, published Wednesday, included a reference to racist anti-Palestinian vandalism, known as "price tag" attacks. Israel Police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld said there "is vandalism with nationalistic motives but these are not nationalistic attacks on Palestinians. You cannot compare whatsoever between terrorist acts, the cold-blooded killing of Israelis, and...vandalism on that level."
