Professors for a Strong Israel
Statement to the Press -
26 August 1998
Re: No "business as usual" with terrorists
Professors for a Strong Israel demands that the Prime Minister suspend
immediately all talks with the Palestinian Authority, until the murderers
of the settlers are arrested and handed over.
We insist that there is no such thing as "business as usual" with terrorists,
under the increasing threat of PLO/Hamas terror.
Continued "business as usual" will lead to escalation in murderous attacks
aimed at settlers on both sides of the "Green Line."
Even President Clinton, besieged as he is, has understood the imperative
of responding to terror.
The failure of Israel's Governments, including the present one, to wage an
unambiguous campaign against terror is leading to a situation where terror
threatens our very existence.
Retreat in the face of terror and weakness in demanding reciprocity are
a sure recipe for war.
