IDF Commanders Discuss the Decline in Palestinian Terror Attacks
(Ynet News) Yossi Yehoshua - Six battalion commanders from the Judea and Samaria Division discussed the current wave of terror attacks and the methods employed which brought about their significant decline. Col. Roman Gofman said: "In two-and-a-half months, 12 terrorists came from the village of Sa'ir near Hebron, for example. We checked the clans that they belonged to and targeted them and them only, while we made things easier for the rest of the clans. They quickly recognized this and stopped whoever they needed to." Col. Roi Strait said that the village of Budrus, north of Ramallah, "with about 2,500 residents, caused a lot of problems. But the moment that we began to pave a central road for them, the mayor and the principal of a school came and stopped a demonstration that had erupted."
