Is there really a truce?
Here's some official statistics, and they aren't pretty.
There was a 54 percent increase in the number of terrorist attacks in April compared to the previous month, a report published by the Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) revealed on Tuesday.The only way to end terror is for the terrorists to be disarmed.
In April there were a total of 205 terror attacks in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, compared with 133 in March. While no Israelis were killed in either month, 10 were wounded in April, compared with 11 in March.
In what Israel had hoped would be a period of calm and mutual faith-building measures that would allow Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas to strengthen his control over the terrorists, there were an average of 55 daily warnings in April of planned attacks, compared with 41 in March. On Tuesday, 52 terror alerts were recorded, officials said.
