Israel Takes Bin Laden's Threats Seriously
[AP] Mark Lavie - Israeli Prime Minister Olmert's spokesman, Mark Regev, said al-Qaeda operatives have been inching closer to Israel in recent years, and Israel is aware of the danger. "Israel takes bin Laden's threats seriously. We have seen al-Qaeda activity to the north of Israel, in Lebanon, to the east of Israel, in Jordan, and to the south of Israel, in Sinai." "There is also evidence of al-Qaeda activities in the Palestinian territories. As a result, we will be irresponsible not to take this rhetoric seriously," he said.
