Netanyahu: Islamic Terrorism Is Inundating the World-


(Prime Minister's Office) Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday visited the border policewoman who was wounded in Wednesday's terrorist attack at Damascus Gate in Jerusalem. He said: "I just visited with the border policewoman who - along with her comrades - acted with heroism and resourcefulness. Together with their commander, they prevented a much greater disaster. I was impressed by her courage, tenacity and steadfastness....Of course, we all grieve over the death of Hadar Cohen, a genuine hero. We all embrace her family." "We are in a very major effort against terrorism...and we will defeat it. It will take time; this is a protracted struggle. Islamic terrorism is inundating the world and inciting millions in many countries, from Jakarta to Africa to California. We are part of this turmoil, it is not skipping over us, and we are fighting it with great strength and will continue to do so." The border policewoman told the prime minister, "We are here to protect civilians....This is why we are here. I have no doubt that Hadar knew this and acted in this light. I understood that Hadar saved my life."
