Professors for a Strong Israel
Statement to the Press - 14 January 2002
Re: The war criminal
Professors for a Strong Israel -
- congratulates the IDF on its operation to destroy the tunnels used to smuggle arms to the Palestinian Terror Authority.
The IDF has thus forestalled the murder of many innocents; this means that the operation was both ethical and vital.
- condemns the unconditional trust placed by the extreme Left and by segments of the press corps in the declarations of the Liar of Gaza. This contrasts with the skepticism with which the official statements of the IDF are greeted.
- declares that the blame for the suffering of the residents of Rafiah lies squarely at Arafat's door. He is the one who digs tunnels under their houses and shoots from their windows. These are the actions of a war criminal.
- calls on the government to persevere in its fight against terrorist arms smuggling. This is a war, not a game of reprisals.
