Mayor of Palestinian city, home to Ari Fuld's attacker, condemns terror
"I condemn every act of violence, both against Palestinians and against Israelis."
By JERUSALEM POST
Ibrahim Ali, the mayor of the West Bank village of Yatta, the home of
the Palestinian terrorist responsible for the Sunday attack that killed
Israeli-American Ari Fuld, condemned the terror incident in an interview
on Army Radio Monday morning.
"I condemn every act of violence, both against Palestinians and against
Israelis," Ali said. Ali also said that he knew the family of the
terrorist responsible for the attack, Khalil Yusef Ali Jabarin, though
not Jabarin himself.However, he added, Palestinians in the city are
living in a situation that leads to such attacks. "Many things can cause
a person to reach a state of abject humiliation," he said. "People here
are hungry and they have no money to buy food. Their self-respect has
been trampled."
"One of the things that causes these attacks is Israeli policy," Ali said.
In an overnight raid, IDF forces entered Yatta the night of the attack, according to a statement by the IDF Spokesperson's Unit.
The IDF carried out house-to-house searches in the village, questioned
Jabarin's relatives, and confiscated material from his home to be used
for investigation. The IDF also measured Jabarin's house in preparation
for its demolition, Israeli media reported.
