Sharon: Terrorist Murder Occurred Under Auspices of Hague Court


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Sharon told the Cabinet Sunday: "An Israeli woman was murdered by criminal Palestinian terrorists and additional civilians were wounded....This morning's act of murder is the first to have occurred under the auspices of the opinion of the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague....The State of Israel completely rejects the ICJ's opinion." "The opinion completely ignores the reason for the construction of the security fence - murderous Palestinian terrorism. It deals only with the Israeli response - the construction of the fence, which is the most reasonable means in the face of this despicable terrorism." "The Palestinians...know full well that the completion of the fence will make it very difficult for them to continue perpetrating acts of murder." "The opinion sends a deadly message that encourages terror on the one hand and prevents countries from protecting themselves against it on the other." "Today, all who fear the spread of terror must stand alongside Israel in demanding that this immoral and dangerous opinion pass from the world."
