Islamist Terror in Herzliya
(Israel Hayom) Freddy Eytan - Before dawn on Dec. 27, the residents of Herzliya were running to shelters, suddenly awakened by warnings of a new ballistic missile launch from Yemen. Islamist terrorism is at our doorstep. Later that morning, Ludmilla Lipovsky, 83, a Holocaust survivor from Europe, was brutally murdered by a Palestinian from Tulkarem, here in Herzliya, in the center of the country. We are living a war of attrition. Despite the truce in Lebanon, tensions are still high and Iran is trying to rearm Hizbullah. In Syria, the new government is not reassuring. In Gaza, Hamas is still capable of launching missiles. The Houthis, 2,000 km. from our borders, are relentlessly continuing to fire ballistic missiles. The writer, a researcher at the Jerusalem Center for Security and Foreign Affairs, is a former Foreign Ministry senior adviser who was Israel's first ambassador to the Islamic Republic of Mauritania.
