After Official PA Condolence Call for Slain Terrorist, Israel Questions Palestinian Commitment to Peace
(Times of Israel) Stuart Winer and Dov Lieber - The Israel Prime Minister's Office on Thursday denounced a condolence visit by a senior Palestinian official to the mourning tent for an attacker who tried to ram Israeli soldiers with his car on Monday, saying the show of support casts doubt on the Palestinian Authority's intention to make peace with Israel. Majed Faraj, the head of the PA intelligence service, visited the family of Muhammad Ibrahim Jibril, 24, in the West Bank village of Teqoa on Wednesday. Jamal Muhaisen, a member of the Fatah Central Committee, also visited the mourning tent. Fatah is the political party that dominates the PA.
