INTEL MINISTER AFTER ATTACKS: ISRAEL IN ‘WAR AGAINST ISIS-STYLE MUSLIM EXTREMIST TERROR’:

Israel’s Intelligence Minister Yisrael Katz, who is a member of the security cabinet, on Tues. night 8 March 2016, labeled the current wave of violence a war. "We are in the midst of a war against ISIS-style Muslim extremist terror," Katz told Israel’s Channel 2. "We are in an emergency situation. There are murderers here who are motivated by hatred and we cannot allow Jews to continue to get harmed. There is an intifada of incitement. We must restore deterrence, so I must ask all the higher than thou who scold us to understand our current reality." A media poll Tues. night revealed that 73 percent of Israelis are unsatisfied with PM Netanyahu's handling of the security situation. (Jerusalem Post)
