PA Columnist Praises Attacks in Israeli Cities

(MEMRI) On March 8, 2016, during U.S. Vice President Joe Biden's visit to Israel, American West Point graduate and combat veteran Taylor Force was killed and 14 Israelis and tourists were wounded in three terrorist attacks that took place in Jaffa, Jerusalem and Petah Tikva. Rajab Abu Suraya, a columnist for the PA daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, praised the attacks in his March 11 column: "The importance of these attacks lies in the fact that they came after a long period in which there was no [event of] three attacks occurring on the same day. Even more importantly, all three occurred inside the Green Line: in Jerusalem, Petah Tikva and Jaffa. This is very important....Shifting the battle zone into inside the Green Line means that the fire has reached Israel's fingers."
