Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu on Monday evening held a situation assessment regarding Judea and Samaria, following a deadly Palestinian terrorist attack earlier in the day.
The meeting was attended by Defense Minister Yisroel Katz, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi and Israel Security Agency (Shin Bet) Director Ronen Bar.
“The prime minister approved the operations to apprehend the terrorists and bring them to justice, as well as a series of additional offensive and defensive actions in Judea and Samaria,” according to a statement from Netanyahu’s office.
Three people were killed and eight were wounded in a terrorist shooting on Monday morning next to the Palestinian village of Al-Funduq, located close to Kedumim in Samaria.
“We will find the abhorrent murderers and settle accounts with them and with all those who aided them. No one will get away,” Netanyahu said after the attack. JNS

The main objective should not be to apprehend the attackers. That does not bring back the dead or heal the wounded. And there are hundreds more terrorists among the Arab population. Terrorists are a dime a dozen in Arab villages. That is one of their main contributions to Israel. Arresting a few does not do anything to solve the problem. The short term main objective should be to reinstate roadblocks so that these terrorists will hopefully be arrested before they are able to maim and murder. The long term main objective should be to bring Yehuda and Shomron under Israeli sovereignty and to encourage the Arab population to move to greener pastures. Most would gladly move to the U.S and Europe .
