Israel Believes Iran Behind Attempted Golan Heights Blast
(Ha'aretz) Gili Cohen and Amos Harel - Israeli defense officials assume the terrorist cell that intended to place an explosive charge on the Israeli-Syrian border in the Golan Heights on April 25 was operated by Samir Kuntar, working on instructions from Iran. Kuntar, a Lebanese Druze who was serving a life sentence for the brutal 1979 murders of the Haran family in Nahariya, was freed in 2008 as part of the deal to return the bodies of IDF reservists Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev.
